Discussion Forums in Hospitality Management
Each year, more than 250 industry executives visit the Hotel School. They come to talk with faculty members, to lecture and meet informally with students, and to recruit. A long-standing tradition, the Dean's Distinguished Lecture Series is an integral part of the curriculum, and both graduate students and undergraduates take part.
Guest speakers provide insight that links academic theory to practical outside fieldwork, helps students succeed in the classroom, and prepares them to thrive as hospitality leaders.
In H ADM 6610, students have the unique opportunity to meet with several of these guest lecturers in a small group setting, where these successful industry leaders share their experiences and views on the skill sets, temperaments, and leadership styles needed to be a valuable executive. This provides an unparalleled opportunity to learn how hospitality executives view the current and future status of the industry.
