The best way to learn about the exciting fields of Travel & Event Management is to do it the fun way - travel! Sullivan Travel and Event Management Associate degree students have the opportunity to plan and take two trips during their course of study. The first trip, taken during the first year of study, takes students to major cities and tourist attractions in the United States. The second trip is via plane and cruise ship to major island resorts and may include back-of-the house tours of Walt Disney World or other major tourist attractions nationwide. The cruise ship trip takes place during the fall quarter break in September of the second year of study. Graduates may also move on to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management.
