BS in Hospitality Management with Specialization in Cruise Ship Operations Management

BSHM - Cruise Line Operations Management Specialization (a newly revised curriculum) is designed to prepare adventurous and sturdy students for a successful career in the exciting world of cruise liners. Aside from the HM skills in front office, food and beverage, communications, customer service, technology skills, the new curriculum develops the professional requirements of knowing the nature of cruise ship operations, work in a multicultural environment, wider issues on personnel, organizational behaviour, security, safety and crisis management as well as cruise ship destinations and marketing. OJT onboard ship caps the training enabling the student to discover how operations are conducted on board the ship and grounds the students on the reality aspects of the job as well as motivate him further on the cruise ship profession. Career opportunities offer the same positions as the other HM specializations. Aligned with the legacy of PWU, all the specializations are implemented in an environment of training for social sensitivity, ethical professionalism and a deliberate advocacy for cultural heritage and the county.
