Outline (in English)

“Tourism” is a field currently gaining a significant attention as a savior of Japan in the tough environments such as economic depression, population decline, and aging. In particular, it has particularly large expectations for the aspect of “Revitalization” in exhausted local cities. On the other hand, needs of tourists become diversified and traditional travel agencies have been losing their advantageous grounds due to information collection and travel arrangement by each individual tourist himself through the wide spread of the Internet while the tourism style itself has also been changing on the background of various factors with the change of the times such as requiring a form of “Sustainable tourism” in harmony with actual local conditions. It will absolutely need a concept or idea of “Marketing” when accurately comprehending a large variety of tourist needs, maximizing the tourist satisfaction, and then developing “Sustainable tourism”. In this class, on the basis of understanding the basic theory of “Marketing”, you will learn the process of tourism industry by examining particular cases in the industry. "Tourism" once positioned as a growing industry, has been re-positioned in the current Covid-19 epidemic. I like to incorporate how "sightseeing" will shift in the "new daily routines".
