The Hospitality Management program helps students achieve the knowledge and experience necessary to support a company’s business objectives and ensure superior customer service across a wide range of service industries. Students learn how to be effective and ethical leaders in the industry, and gain the financial and technical know-how to navigate the full spectrum of hospitality operations.
Students discover how social, cultural, and economic forces impact the dynamic hospitality industry and will find opportunities to showcase and strengthen newfound skills at world-class hotels, conference centers, restaurants, and corporations, while learning from professors who have relevant, real-world experience in the hospitality and management fields. A major in hospitality management prepares students for careers in hotels and resorts, conference and trade centers, event planning companies, restaurants, casinos, travel agencies, airlines, and human resource management and customer service management departments.
