Designed to complement any major, Salve Regina University’s minor in hospitality and tourism management provides a firm understanding of how leisure is facilitated through hospitality services and tourism experiences, as well as its impact on both local and global ecosystems.

Prepare to Enter a Growing Industry

Hospitality is one of the world’s oldest and fastest-growing industries. The ability to assist consumers, meet their needs or simply make them feel at home is an important component of nearly every business today – meaning even companies from outside the tourism industry are hiring hospitality associates to form beneficial relationships with clients.

Salve Regina’s minor in hospitality and tourism management provides the knowledge and competencies needed to successfully oversee a restaurant, hotel or independently owned business. We offer foundational courses in the broader hospitality and tourism industry – with a focus on both the customer service experience and industry impact – while also allowing students to choose relevant electives that support different professions and sectors.

Students who complete the minor are prepared to enter nearly any segment of the industry, including hotel/resort management, tourism sales and operations, resorts and spas, event management or private club management.
