Hospitality and Tourism Management

Highline College ETPL

The Hospitality and Tourism (HOST) field is the world’s largest business. This field has the highest percentage of entrepreneurs of any segment of global business and is integral to the Pacific Northwest’s economy and communities. HOSTers learn transferrable management skills and apply this learning to exciting industries based on their interests in areas like lodging, airlines/airports, food & beverage, cruise lines, casinos, sustainable recreation and parks (e.g. ecotourism), event planning, and more. Whether you are seeking to be an entrepreneur, manager, pursue a bachelor’s degree in business or management, or perhaps even just want to work for a hotel or airline for travel benefits, an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in the world’s largest business (i.e. hospitality and tourism) may be for you. Contact an advisor to learn more.
