The aim of the course is to prepare substructure to develop and manage such touristic products after the graduation by understanding the importance of tourism movements being excluded from mass tourism and comprising special interests of individuals.
Within the concept of the lesson, differences between general interest tourism, mixing interest and special interest tourism movements and the point special interest tourism reach will be given not only as conceptually but also quantitatively. Afterwards, distinctive features of the participations of special interest tourism will be imparted in consideration of typology studies done. It is beneficial for students to learn the profile of participants and buying behaviours very well because that information is important for students wanting to take part in the activities of special interest tourism after the graduation. It is expected that students will make preparations about a field of special interest and present those in the classroom environment.
