Career Options

The hospitality industry is requiring new college graduates who can go directly into management and can hit-the-ground-running on their first day of work. To fill that need, the hospitality management degree provides students with skills in management, human resources, hospitality technology, food and beverage operations, service delivery as well as basic business fundamentals in marketing and accounting. The OSU-Cascades hospitality management program focuses on providing students with the tools and experience to achieve entrepreneurial dreams. This program will support students with an interest in starting their own restaurant, boutique hotel, tour company or other travel related company.
