Student Experience

Literally, a world of opportunity

With a curriculum that’s driven and supported by the industry, you’ll have access to courses developed and updated based on the needs of this far-reaching field. It’s the best of both worlds—hands-on applied education coupled with traditional research-based academia.

 

Gain hands-on experience

The Bachelor of Hospitality and Tourism Management program at Algonquin College provides students with realistic industry experience from the very beginning, where they work directly with customers to get the best possible results. Students work on real projects with real financial goals, challenges and objectives, with the help and guidance of some of the industry’s leaders as their professors. A Campus Travel Agency and two dedicated computer labs equipped with hospitality and tourism industry software further help students learns the skills of their trade. This hands-on and theoretical knowledge is put to the test during two co-op work terms, where students experience exciting learning environments both in and out of the classroom.
