Bachelor

Leisure is all around us, from parties to music festivals, from amateur sports to urban development projects around sports stadiums, and from art to gaming and esports. But what's behind it?
How can we predict trends in the way people spend their leisure time? How can traditional leisure businesses use social media more effectively to attract visitors? What new business models are needed in an increasingly complex and dynamic leisure sector? You will explore all this and more in the only academic bachelor's programme in the field of leisure in the Netherlands.
