Program overview

A two year master degree in hospitality leadership with an optional internship, covering revenue management, service operations, hospitality finance, strategy and an applied industry project.

Master of Hospitality Management Studies lists five entry windows rather than the seven most programmes here offer, and it carries a PTE profile that differs from the other masters by a few points. Vancouver’s hotel and resort sector gives the internship real substance.

Master of Hospitality Management Studies is taught at the Vancouver campus of Fairleigh Dickinson University, a Designated Learning Institution with the number O19227134842. This matters more than it may appear. Because Master of Hospitality Management Studies is a degree rather than a college diploma or certificate, it is exempt from the federal field of study requirement introduced in November 2024, which restricts post-graduation work permits after non-degree programmes. Subject does not matter for a degree. A British Columbia provincial attestation letter is still required alongside the Master of Hospitality Management Studies study permit application.

The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for hospitality management master is recorded at CAD 17,175. A CAD 145 application fee applies, and no scholarship is recorded against hospitality management master. hospitality management master lists five entry windows a cycle.

Career opportunities

  • Hotel Manager: after experience
  • Revenue Manager: hotel groups
  • Food and Beverage Director: large venues
  • Operations Manager: hospitality settings
  • Guest Experience Manager: resorts and hotels

Reality check: hospitality management progresses through operational experience, so a master without prior industry work delivers considerably less than one taken after it.
