Medical tourism is a new module in the 2015-2016 prospectus of the Institute of Tourism Studies (ITS).
The module will be offered as part of the diploma in travel and tourism operations.
It will provide course participants with a general understanding of the medical tourism industry, and prepares and trains them in different aspects of medical tourism with respect to travel and tourism operations.
Institute executive director Pierre Fenech said: “This falls in line with the strategy of ITS to embark on new areas of study to diversify the hospitality industry and to prepare students for challenges that the industry will face in the near future.”
