Coming as a good news for those keen to join hospitality segment in the tourism industry, the Union Tourism Ministry is mulling to set up a university to promote hospitality and tourism education with an objective to integrate all the existing institutions of hotel management and catering technology and travel and tourism under the University’s ambit.
“The university is proposed to be set up to award degrees to the courses run under formal education in the institutions under its aegis and to explore new dimensions of understanding of tourism and hospitality education by including related areas of sciences and humanities such as food sciences, history, sociology and culture,” the Government said.
