Why is George Brown College offering a Bachelor of Applied Business degree in Hospitality Operations Management?
The $2.75 trillion global hospitality industry is the world’s largest industry, representing 25 per cent of global trade and 10 per cent of employment. In Canada, the hospitality industry employs 1.4 million workers, representing 10 percent of all employment and it is estimated that a further 306,000 new jobs will be created by 2005. With the industry’s dynamic growth, there is ongoing demand for qualified staff to manage growing and increasingly sophisticated hospitality operations. In addition, more large companies are requiring entry-level management staff to have degrees as well as practical experience and training. The Hospitality Operations Management degree program at George Brown College has been developed specifically to meet this need by producing graduates who can plan and manage multi-faceted hospitality enterprises.
