The Hospitality and Tourism Administration curriculum allows students to take a mix of courses that reflect their individual talents and interests. Although students are required to take a number of hospitality and core curriculum courses, they also have the opportunity of choosing electives from other Schools in the College. This permits students to design a course mix that is appropriate to their interests and aspirations. Greater choice is given in junior and senior years when students will want to consider more specialized career pathways or postgraduate alternatives.

The Endicott mission of internships and applied learning is emphasized within the School of Hospitality and Tourism Administration. The 120-hour internships in freshman and sophomore years allow students to gain initial experience and ideas in terms of possible career goals. The semester-long internship is an opportunity to have a more substantive experience in a local, national or international setting. In a global economy, international experience provides a competitive advantage in the job market.
