CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION

The hospitality industry is one of the world's largest and most dynamic

sectors, encompassing a wide range of services, from hotels and restaurants to

event planning and tourism. As this industry continues to expand and evolve, the

demand for well-trained, skilled professionals has never been higher. In response to

this demand, numerous educational institutions around the world offer hospitality

programs designed to prepare students for careers in this exciting field. However,

the quality and effectiveness of these programs can vary significantly, raising

questions about how they can be improved to better meet the needs of students and

the industry. This research project recognizes the need for ongoing improvement in

hospitality education and aims to contribute to this process. By conducting a

comparative study of different schools offering hospitality programs, we hope to

identify best practices and areas in need of enhancement. Our research approach

involves a mix of surveys, interviews, and document analysis to gather data from a

diverse set of hospitality education institutions worldwide.
