Abstract: The topic of this paper leads to the field of practice generated knowledge. Its importance for the institutional educational process in the Tourism specialty, University of Veliko Tarnovo is being proved. The researched literature shows the need of transferring the teaching in high education from theory-based to practice-based, without belittling the lecture approach. The main method, used is the survey method where self-assessment analysis is applied. Some findings show that practice-generated knowledge is accepted as a useful one for the targeted respondents – they learnt new things in the course of the project/activity done, they acquired necessary skills and consider university practices useful for their career development. Students gave their highest marks for the responsiveness of the lecturers who lead those practices, as well as for their methodology approaches.
