Licenciatura en Gestión de Hospitalidad

The global hospitality industry needs managers with strong practical skills, hands-on experience and strategic management capability. In Australia alone, the industry has grown rapidly in the past five years, fuelled by the country’s growing ‘foodie’ culture, rising popularity in hospitality business ownership and a skyrocketing population. Australia’s hospitality sector employs almost 1 million people and continues to grow. Consumer needs are becoming more complex and hospitality businesses need qualified and skilled hospitality staff to meet customer expectations. Whether you would like to work for an established accommodation or food services provider, or wish to start your own hospitality business, Melbourne Polytechnic’s Bachelor of Hospitality Management is designed to teach you the skills you need to take the lead in this booming industry.

Melbourne Polytechnic’s Bachelor of Hospitality Management will equip you with the skills and qualifications to take on a leadership role in a range of hospitality sectors. You will gain hands-on experience in restaurant management and operations by training in real-life restaurant and bar environments, including our commercial kitchens that have been used on MasterChef and The Great Australian Bake-Off. Our onsite commercial working restaurant, St Georges, as well as our fully-equipped training bar and conference facilities will provide you with the practical experience needed to succeed in this industry. You will use industry-relevant software programs, learn the latest trends in hospitality and business and run live events in collaboration with our industry partners. We have arranged partnerships with many local industry partners to secure work-integrated learning placements, including small and medium-sized businesses and community organisations. As a Melbourne Polytechnic student, you will be fully supported and guided by our experienced lecturers. We have student exchange agreements with a number of international institutions, offering domestic Melbourne Polytechnic students the chance to study in another country for six months.
