The UWI STA Tourism Society was officially launched in January 2018. The UWI STA Tourism Society is a fun and exciting club that strives to Educate, Engage and Empower both students and the public by hosting on-campus exhibits, touring the natural attributes of Trinidad and Tobago’s hiking trails, beaches, and wildlife conservation centres. Members are afforded the opportunity to visit a variety of hotel chains (including Courtyard by Marriott and the Hyatt Regency Hotel) in which they are exposed to the job fields that are available. <\/p>\n

Frieda Mohammed (President)
\nVicki Mathura ( Vice President)
\nAmina Khan (Public Relations Officer)
\nKristy Mike (Secretary)
