This year, the Department of Tourism received the Most Innovative Course Award at the Faculty of Business and Economics for their Integrated Tourism Experiential Learning (ITTT) program.

The goal of ITTT is to help students develop in real-world settings by involving professionals, fostering a comprehensive and multifaceted view of tourism. The program’s innovative methods and practical focus ensure that young people gain not only theoretical knowledge but also applicable experiences. The recognition reflects both the program’s success and the team’s collaborative effort.

The department also thanks cooperating tourism service providers for actively participating in study trips and enriching future tourism professionals with valuable knowledge and experience. It’s especially rewarding to reconnect with alumni in several places, now as experienced professionals.

The post Internship possibility at The University of Macerata (Italy) appeared first on University of Pannonia - FBE.

Balogh Edina (Human Resources, bachelor):

“It was a nice course, the professor was kind, direct and open minded from the very first second. My personal favourite aspect of the course was that we needed to get back to our rusty high school studies – refresh the terms that we have already learned once before. The other thing: the professor shared us many interesting examples from his life, his own experiences – which made understanding much easier. It was great to meet such a globetrotter, I’ve learnt so much about different cultures, and I want to learn more on my own, get such experiences as the professor.”

Yana Dimitrova (Tourism Department-Erasmus, MSc):

“It was a genuine pleasure and honor for me to attend Professor Bratianu’s course in Knowledge Management. He was a guest lecturer in the Tourism Department at the University of Pannonia for 1 week. During the classes we spent considerable time learning new things and experiences. Professor Bratianu’s presentation was very educative and beneficial for increasing our knowledge not just in the field of management but also in life as general. He was very much a people person, easy going and always attentive to our questions. I have no hesitation in recommending Professor Bratianu for any management-related teachings, training and practices. I feel confident he would be an asset to every university and academic organization.”

Hegyi Szabina (Business Administration and Management, bachelor):

“In my opinion, the most interesting story was when Professor Bratianu told about story of cultural differences between Europeans and Americans. I liked the picture in the whole curriculum and lots of interesting things from Professor Bratianu for example he loves to travel the world.”

Horváth Zsanett (Applied Economics, bachelor):

“I really liked the knowledge management course. Professor Bratianu was very sympathetic, competent and knowledgeable. There were a lot of interesting stories about the professors personal experiences, which made the course really interesting. My favourite story is: „Hospitality and greeting forms”. I really appreciate taking part in such a good course.”

Péter Martina (Technical Management, BSc):

“I really liked the way the professor’s lecture and the lessons were very interactive. The teacher was interested in our beliefs as well and there are many interesting things we learned in the curriculum and in addition to talking about personal experiences as well. My favourite story is: ‘Two men and bear”- it is an istructive story. I am pleased to attend this course and I got to know a new way of thinking. Thank you!”

Mohlasz Anita (Tourism and catering, bachelor):

“I actually do not have any negative feedback about this course. I liked the way of Prof. Constantin Bratianu talking. People could feel he is enjoying teaching and share knowledge with us. I found „Knowledge sharing and communities of practice” very interesting topic. He explained the types of knowledge sharing very well to us and before I didn’t even think about this. I learned a lot in that week and I absolutely enjoyed of his teaching. It is funny to say but it was short time for me, I could listen more of his experience, stories and ideas. The other thing I really liked it that he always took his own experience of his life and tried to explain with this way to us. I think with real stories people will remember easier. I can just say positive things.”

Molnár Réka (Technical Management, BSc):

Professor Bratianu is a really inspiring person and teacher. His stories were amazing; from places, where he was, from people, who he met etc. On the slide were many photos of his adventure, and it was really interesting. It was exceptional to participate on this course.

Sárkány Orsolya (Business Administration and Management, bachelor):

I liked the knowledge management course because throw new light upon knowledge and knowledge management. The course was very interesting to me because the professor not only talked about definition and theory but interesting story. And the professor was very kind and helpful. In my opinion the most interesting lecture was the emotional knowledge and in this I like the iceberg metaphor, where we knew the explicit and tacit knowledge connection.

Barka Fanni (Business Administration and Management, bachelor):

I can just say positive things about this course. The teacher Prof. Constantin Bratianu is inspiring teacher who helpful and friendly. He loves his job and it is very important. He has very amazing stories, pictures and adventures which are shared with us. His class was different than other classes I really enjoyed it. I learned a lot of new thing about knowledge (when I changed to switched my brain  ) and other cultures. Thank you very much, it was very interesting and gaiety week.
