CETT's Research
Discover research at CETT: innovation and transformation
The CETT aims to be the agent of change in the sector in order to anticipate new challenges and social trends. For this reason, at the CETT we support the development of applied research projects that contribute to the competitiveness and sustainability of tourism, hospitality and gastronomy.
In this sense, research at the CETT is framed in three major axes of transformation:
Reference
The CETT promotes three research groups: TURCiT (Tourism, Culture and Territory Research Group), GRATiR (Tourist Accommodation and Restoration Research Group) and GRCiG (Cooking and Gastronomy Research Group), which act as a research pillar. and transfer of knowledge in the fields of tourism, hospitality and gastronomy.
Innovation
The UB Chair of Tourism, Hospitality and Gastronomy CETT is a joint initiative of the CETT Barcelona School of Tourism, Hospitality and Gastronomy, the University of Barcelona, CETT Foundation, and Barcelona City Council that aims to promote research and the transfer of knowledge in their areas of action.
Conexión
With the desire to form communication bridges between the academic world and applied science, we promote the creation of two academic journals: the ARA Journal of Tourism Research, an academic and applied science communication medium, and the Tourism and Heritage Journal, which seeks share knowledge about cultural and heritage tourism.
Research groups
Research at the CETT is structured into three groups focused on the CETT's areas of knowledge: tourism, hospitality and gastronomy.
The objective of these research groups is the generation of knowledge and its transfer to the sector and society to contribute to the sustainable management of the thematic areas of the CETT.
In this way, the leadership and participation of CETT teaching and research staff in research projects with the private sector and public administrations are promoted, and joint research agreements are established with other international universities.
