That’s because hospitality business management majors are required to have 1,000 hours of paid hospitality experience to complete the degree. Most will have multiple internships, part-time, and full-time positions with progressive responsibility; qualifying hours after high school count toward this requirement.

The Burtenshaw career fairs are open to students from all WSU locations and are a great place to find countless internships. The program gives you access to an excellent network of hundreds of hospitality business management alumni across the nation.

A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITY What’s more, the hospitality business management program gives you the chance to study abroad. We have an international campus in Switzerland and opportunities to study in Italy, France, Spain, and other destinations.
