520 $a This study's methodology combines aspects of both quantitative and qualitative research and the epilogue presents the personal side of the research project (from data gathering to presentation).
520 $a The program in Hotel and Food Administration at Boston University has been in existence for over ten years, educating 309 graduates. This study was designed to follow up on these graduates to determine where they were employed in the hospitality industry and what they were doing, as well as elicit suggestions for improvement of the Hotel and Food Administration Program.
520 $a A questionnaire was designed to gather demographic data, and the perceptions program graduates had of the appropriateness of their education based on their current hospitality industry position. The survey also sought to determine preferred instructional methods, and which of these instructional methods they would recommend. Additionally, graduates were asked if they intended to pursue advanced degrees. A list of competencies was employed to determine frequency of performance of selected operational, administrative, human resource management, and food and beverage management competency/tasks indicative of the hospitality industry professional. Graduate respondents were asked to rate their preparation by their program studies for performance of these selected industry competency/tasks. The response rate was 85.5% of those graduates who had been identified as having been graduated from the program between 1983-1991, and who were employed in the hospitality industry.
520 $a Though general program satisfaction was reported, it was through write-in data and in-depth interviews with selected graduates that suggestions for program improvement were made. Included were: The provision of a Human Resource Management course in the program's core curriculum, incorporation of field observations by students, expansion of distinguished lectures series, more elements of hands-on training, separate hospitality discipline offerings within the program, a wider incorporation of other instructional methods to support lecture classes, the development and inclusion of an intermediate food course, and greater career counselling for students in the freshman year.
