The Hospitality and Real Estate programme is positioned as a business programme with two industry-oriented streams – hospitality and real estate. The hospitality industry, covering a wide range of businesses (such as hotels, travel & tourism, restaurants, theme parks, cruise, airlines, clubs, recreational facilities, convention & exhibition, to name just a few), and the real estate industry are closely connected as both industries emphasise the asset element as well as the service element. To capture this industry feature, the real estate stream focuses on planning, developing, and investing in the ‘assets’ (e.g., buildings), the hospitality stream focuses on the ‘service’ element – how to improve service quality, ensure customer satisfaction, and increase organisational performance. The programme aims to develop industry leaders who understand the hospitality and real estate businesses from both the managers’ and the owners’/investors’ perspectives. Our education philosophy is to integrate theory and practice. Students can apply the knowledge and skills they have learned in classrooms to analyse and solve real-world problems encountered in summer internships and in various experiential learning activities. Our teaching hotel-Hyatt Regency Shatin, demonstration kitchen, wine laboratory and student-managed restaurants provide the ideal learning environment for theory-practice integration. To enhance students’ global perspective, the programme also arranges extensive student exchange opportunities. Our students have exclusive opportunities to participate in exchange programme with Ivy-League Cornell University, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) and a tri-lateral exchange with the University of Queensland and Mahidol University International College under the Asia-Pacific Hospitality Management Programme. Our School has also formed partnership with the Department of Real Estate at National University of Singapore as well as Ritsumeikan Asia-Pacific University in Japan. This creates a wide range of possibilities for students to gain international experience, which is a vital element in the curriculum.
