Hospitality, Tourism and Culinary Management
Hospitality and related businesses generate more than $4 trillion a year worldwide. New Hampshire, which has 68,000 hospitality-related jobs, generates $9 billion and welcomes more than 25 million visitors a year. That’s a lot of opportunity for aspiring chefs, travel experts, hoteliers, bakers and others interested in this high-energy industry.
Graduates of our associate, bachelor’s and master’s degree programs -- including culinary arts, baking and pastry arts, hotel and resort management, travel management, hospitality administration and more – are in demand all over the world.
Our faculty members are the cream of the crop. All have professional certifications and industry experience as innkeepers, chefs, bakers, consultants, wine lovers and world travelers. They’re also enthusiastic teachers.
All our programs are international, interdisciplinary and high energy. You won’t be limited to the classroom – or at least the traditional four walls, desks and a blackboard. Hospitality school “classrooms” include our student-run gourmet restaurant, a ballroom, a coffee and pastry shop (it’s one of only four Starbucks locations in New Hampshire) and our new Granite State Guest House. That doesn’t even count all the off-campus experiences you’ll have through class trips, consulting projects, community service and enviable internships/cooperatives.
