The University of South Florida’s Sarasota-Manatee campus is located on the scenic west coast of Florida. The sun-soaked Gulf of Mexico beaches make the area a tourist haven. To support the tourism industry in the area, USF Sarasota-Manatee offers a Bachelor of Science (BS) Degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management.  We also offer a Bachelor of Science in Applied Science with an emphasis in Hospitality Management (BSAS).  We have two certificate programs: one in Hotel Management and one in Restaurant Management, as well as two minor programs: one in Hotel Management and one in Restaurant Management.  The School of Hotel and Restaurant Management is the first School located off of the main USF Tampa campus and the first hospitality school on the west coast of Florida.

The Bachelor of Science Degree in Hospitality Management prepares outstanding individuals to be service-oriented professionals. The School of Hotel and Restaurant Management prepares individuals for entry-level management and supervisory level positions in the hospitality industry. A general business education with specialized hotel and restaurant management courses equips students to approach problem solving in a disciplined and systematic manner. An advisory board composed of Industry leaders are involved with the development of the School.

Mission Statement:
The mission of the School of Hotel Restaurant Management at the University of South Florida is to provide excellence in teaching, research and service to all persons and to build foundations for lifelong learning. The School of Hotel and Restaurant Management prepares individuals for industry management and leadership roles in a global economy and interfaces with stakeholders to deliver hospitality professionals that add to the financial, intellectual, environmental, ethical and social growth of Florida and the Nation.
