<p>I would recommend Cornell, Michigan State, UNLV and Purdue.</p>
<p>Hawaii used to have the #1 program, but that was long time ago. I consulted with a couple alum recently and they were reluctant to recommend their own alma mata.</p>
<p>Understand that Boston University, Penn State, Florida State and University of Houston(Conrad) also have good hospitality management programs.</p>
<p>I'd appreciate any insights on Penn State's Hotel Management and Recreation Management programs.</p>
<p>Cornell's the best, of course.</p>
<p>I know Cornell's the best but it's kind of hard for me ^_^;;
I'm currently looking into Boston and Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne as my main choice.. and if i get rejected.. maybe Hawaii.. because I live in Hawaii.... our Travel Industry Management class had been working with Univ. of Hawaii TIM department a lot.</p>
<p>Is Penn State and Northwestern like overall top30 ranked school? (as a whole university)? I will try to look into those school as well. Thank you.</p>
<p>Michigan State is probably the #2 school right after Cornell. It has one of the oldest programs, and one of the first to put Hospitality Management inside the business school (MSU's Broad School of Business is ranked #20 in undergrad).</p>
<p>I don't think Northwestern University (Evanston) has a hospitality program. The one on the list is Northwestern Business College (Chicago), not the same school.</p>
<p>Penn State is ranked #50 overall by USNWR. I'm also curious how good its Hotel Management program is.</p>
<p>University of Houston Hilton School of Hotel Management</p>
<p>How's Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne?
I'm thinking about this school.. mainly I would like to live away for moments, learn to be independent, make myself strong through enduring hardships of not knowing anyone.</p>
<p>Michigan State University-East Lansing has a great hotel school...coming from a Wolverine, that's high praise.</p>
<p>UMass Amherst also has a good hotel school.</p>
<p>University of Houston is also supposed to be good.</p>
<p>UIUC, Purdue-West Lafayette and Maryland-College Park are also good.</p>
<p>Dartmouth is supposed to have an impressive program.</p>
<p>Is Dartmouth, the top 20 overall school? There are so many universities and colleges that share same or similar name.. That confuses me.</p>
<p>I'm so far considering 1) Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne (Switzerland), 2) Boston, 3) Michigan State 4) Cornell (Idk if I'll have decent chance, but I'll try to apply) .. maybe Dartmouth.. if I can't even get into all of those school (Hopefully doesn't happen)... then UH, UNLV, and Purdue as RD.</p>
<p>Could anyone link Dartmouth's program? I couldn't find it on their site. Are you talking about Dartmouth College?</p>
<p>i know that california state polytechnic university pomona has a reputable hospitaly school, and that it's been ranked up there in top 10 but doesnt get much respect due to its CSU family. I know for fact that in 2002 it ranked second with purdue being number 1 (<a href="http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:J-WOsfWL-00J:news.uns.purdue.edu/html3month/020710.Kavanaugh.rank2002.html+Hospitality+School+Ranking&hl=en%5B/url%5D">http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:J-WOsfWL-00J:news.uns.purdue.edu/html3month/020710.Kavanaugh.rank2002.html+Hospitality+School+Ranking&hl=en</a>)</p>
<p>u can check out that link. But, its been 4 years so who knows how much have changed since then. Although i hear Cornell is 1, cal poly pomona 2, and unlv 3 something like that.</p>
<p>My son has looked at Cornell, Virginia Tech, Penn State, UNLV, University of Houston and Johnson & Wales (denver). Each school seems to have its strong points.....guess ti comes down to where you are accepted...and WHERE you best fit in.</p>
<p>can someone give me an overview of hospitality management? what are the courses like? what are typical job prospects like after graduation?</p>
