School of Hotel and Restaurant Management
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.
