WITH THE INDUSTRY Partnering
OUR ADVISORY BOARD
One of the greatest strengths of Kennesaw State University’s Hospitality Management Program is that it was designed from the ground up with direct input from leaders in the hospitality industry. The program’s advisory board has been a valuable partner, ensuring that the curriculum and all career-development activities help stu- dents build skills that the industry is looking for. Without the advisory board’s guidance, the Hospitality Management Program would not be the success it is today.
