Amity University MTTM FAQs
Ques. Is M.T.T.M the same as MBA in Tourism? How is it different?
Ans. M.T.T.M (Master of Tourism and Travel Management) is a specialized postgraduate programme focused exclusively on tourism, travel, and hospitality management. Unlike an MBA, which covers general management across all sectors, M.T.T.M provides deep domain expertise in tourism operations, destination management, tour packaging, and airline management. It is ideal for students who want to build a career specifically in the tourism and travel industry.

Government tourism departments (State Tourism, Ministry of Tourism) also recruit M.T.T.M graduates.
Ques. Does the M.T.T.M programme include IATA certification or airline ticketing training?
