The Bachelor of Business in Tourism and Hospitality (BBTH) is a two-year post-diploma degree available only to graduates of diploma programs at the Atlantic Tourism and Hospitality Institute (ATHI) or of similar programs at similar post-secondary institutions. This post-diploma degree provides the opportunity for students to continue their education through a concentration in Business Administration.

Students must meet the UPEI admission requirements for this degree by completing the ATHI diploma, including economics, or equivalent course work at a university or college, with a minimum overall average of 70%. In the BBTH program, students must obtain grades of at least 60% in at least 12 of the 16 required business courses in order to qualify for the degree. Students are subject to all of the Academic Regulations of the University.

Elective Courses:

In addition to the 18 required courses, students must take 2 elective courses. At least one elective must be a non-business course. The other elective (“a free elective”) may be either a business or a non-business course. For the non-business elective, Island Studies 2110 (Island Tourism: The Search for Paradise) is highly recommended.

Notes:

• Accounting courses are considered to be Business electives.
• Due to student enrolments and faculty availability, some courses may not necessarily be offered each year. Students should consult the current timetable before registration.
• Business 3730 (Tourism Management) or Business 4540 (Tourism and Hospitality management) is recommended for the free elective.
• The completion of UPEI 1010 is a required course for the BBTH, but the course also meets the general UPEI requirement of taking UPEI 1010, 1020 or 1030.
• Students are eligible to apply to the Cooperative Education program upon entrance to the University.
• The following courses are not eligible as electives for the BBTH program: Math 1110/1120, and Economics 1010/1020.
