Recreation, Parks and Tourism <--Colleges that offer this major

<p>Can anyone tell me college that offer majors in</p>

<p>Recreation, Parks and Tourism Administration</p>

<p>If I’m not mistaken, Appalachian State University (North Carolina) does. I’m not sure if you necessarily need to major in that though to get a job in the field.</p>

<p>I think UCD, but i could be wrong</p>

<p>Virginia Tech does as well.</p>

<p>Penn State does.</p>

<p>University of Montanna, I know it sounds goofy but they have a college with a couple programs that are in this area.</p>

<p>University of Florida has that major.
And the University of Central Florida (located in Orlando) has the Rosen College of Hospitality Management that might (I haven’t checked) have that major.</p>

<p>Utah does.</p>

<p>University of Minnesota - Twin Cities</p>

<p>University of Illinois offers one called “Recreation, Sport and Tourism”.</p>

<p>University of Iowa too.</p>

<p>Western Illinois University offers a bachelor’s and master’s degree in RPTA.</p>

<p>I have a friend who majored in something similar at Virginia Tech and absolutely loved it! :slight_smile: Additionally, check with the more “outdoorsy” colleges, like Green Mountain, UVM, or St. Lawrence; most of them have something along those lines.</p>

<p>Brevard College in NC.</p>
