IFTM has been striving to respond to the industry's demand for high-end talents and provide its graduates with a more comprehensive career plan. To achieve this, in addition to the existing degree programmes, IFTM plans to launch the new Postgraduate Diploma and Master of Science in Smart Technologies in Hospitality and Tourism in the academic year 2022/2023.

IFTM offers 6 Postgraduate Diploma Programmes (PgD) in the academic year 2022/2023: "International Hospitality and Tourism Management", "Tourism Management", "Hospitality Management", "International Gastronomy Management", "International Food and Beverage Management" and “Smart Technologies in Hospitality and Tourism”; 6 Master’s Degree Programmes (MSc), "Hospitality and Tourism Management", "International Tourism Management", "International Hospitality Management", "International Gastronomy Management", "International Food and Beverage Management" and “Smart Technologies in Hospitality and Tourism”; and a Doctoral Degree (PhD) in “Hospitality and Tourism Management”.

Most of the programmes are designed by modules and students can choose their preferred modules to obtain the corresponding certificates. For example, students who choose the Tourism module and the Internationalisation module, together with the Management core module and the thesis, will be able to obtain a Master's Degree in International Tourism Management. Students can also go for the PgD track if they would like to enroll in fewer modules and not completing the thesis at the moment. Moreover, to enhance flexibility and also allow for a more personalised study journey, students can choose to take up to 9 credits of courses from other postgraduate programmes recognised by IFTM.
