Progress

Welcome to issue three of Progress, dedicated for the most part to the large cohort of doctoral students undertaking PhDs in the School of Services Management.

From the sponsorship of motor sport to labour migration, wildlife tourism to destination marketing, and from community decision-making to farm diversification, students within the School demonstrate a considerable diversity of interests and research experiences. Collectively they form one of the largest cohorts of PhD students in the areas of tourism and hospitality in the world. With support from staff across all our research centres, the students benefit from being members of a large and expanding community of research-active staff, with many staff serving as advisers to regional and national governments, international organisations and private sector companies around the world.

One of the areas of increasing research interest among both staff and students is the emerging area of experiences and experience management. Building on the School’s highly successful Event Tourism conference held in January, the School is soon to host the Extraordinary Experiences conference in September 2007 which sets out to introduce and debate the implications of these experience perspectives to hospitality, leisure, sport, tourism, retail and events.

I hope you enjoy the contents of this third issue of Progress and that you are able to come and join staff within the School at our conference in September.
