Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to show and share the results of the research that were made in
order to improve the situation and importance of tourism among students and also to offer to the academic
society and not only, the results of this achievement. Was chosed the our country: Romania and I studied the
case. I had to consider the financial crisis in the hope that the results would contribute to minimize it. I got
qualitative data through personal interviews to my students from the Faculty of Management Marketing in
Economic Business from Ramnicu Valcea. All the theoretical and practical views focus on making a rigurous
inventory of all that means tourism, a field that grows each second and expands. The results of this research
have proved it. Tourism is existing and viable for them, with important benefits for present and future
opportunities. The paper highlights the importance of tourism activity, and gives evidence about the rapid
evolution of the tourism industry.
