HTM Application for Current UMass Students

Hospitality and Tourism is the world’s largest industry, and the goods and services we provide are in high demand by consumers. This demand has created a period of tremendous growth in the industry, which is exciting, for both the consumer and the industry alike. With all this growth, we are seeing incredible opportunities for the next generation of managers and leaders. The future is bright for the industry and those working in it. Our HTM students and alumni will be ready to take that lead; we encourage you to apply and be a part of this expanding industry!
