MS and PhD Admissions
Our Master of Science (MS) and doctoral (PhD) degree programs are for students interested in pursuing a career teaching hospitality management in higher education and conducting research in the field.
Both degrees involve developing a broad-based knowledge of hotel and restaurant management; learning research methodology, including statistical methodology; becoming proficient at in-depth research; and acquiring teaching and administrative skills.
The major subject for both degrees is Hotel Administration. Minor subjects may be chosen from all of the academic areas within the school, or from any of the graduate fields throughout the university.
MS and PhD admissions depend highly on the availability of our graduate faculty to take on new graduate students and the alignment of the candidates' proposed research topics with the graduate faculty members' current and upcoming research projects.
