Spanish term

temas de dirección hotelera

Spanish to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy
A module for a Hotel Management degree. I've found the module description:

Temas de Dirección Hotelera (4,5 créditos)

Ciclo de conferencias y/o seminarios. Estudio de best practices. (¡Que feo este anglicismo!)

Earlier in the text I've also had modules with the name being "temas de" followed by the name of the degree itself, but I don't think I translated them well, so I'd like to go back and revise them. Looking at the description, I could just translate as "Hotel Management Lectures and Seminars", but is there a closer equivalent to "temas de" used in British/US... universities? (I did all my studies overseas, so I can't think of anything).

Nothing wrong with saying 'module' or 'course' or even 'topics on hotel management course/module'. Hope this helps
