15 March, 2027Gonzaga University's Master of Arts in Destination Management is a one-year, immersive graduate program based entirely in Florence, Italy, where the city itself becomes a living classroom. Grounded in Gonzaga's Jesuit values and a commitment to ethical, sustainable, and community-centered travel, the program prepares students to address complex challenges facing destinations worldwide, including overtourism, accessibility, environmental stewardship, and cultural preservation. Through experiential learning, community partnerships, and applied projects, students develop the leadership, strategic planning, and stakeholder engagement skills needed to create thriving destinations that benefit both visitors and local communities.
