When I was leaving my country to study a MA in Wellness and Spa Service Design and Management at the University of Tartu, my family and friends were wondering whether it was worth it for me to cross three continents in pursuit of a degree that is totally strange to them. The long title of the degree also contributed to their inability to understand the benefits and fun that can be derived from doing this Master’s degree programme.
Here are five reasons why you should join the programme.
- This programme is the top ranked Master’s degree in Spa and Wellness management
- The curriculum and programme structure is practical in nature, it features business internships and study trips such as visits to companies and world class spas in Estonia
