• Resumen

  • The primary purpose of this paper was to report the current profile and development of hospitality programs in Taiwan's colleges and universities. Approximately 21 percent of colleges and universities now have a hospitality related program (i.e., hotel, restaurant, and tourism management). Information provided in this paper includes names and characteristics of institutions, degree awarded, faculty composition, enrollment number, and credit requirements. From this report, hospitality educators and practitioners will gain an understanding of Taiwan's hospitality and tourism education and will have access to detailed program information. International educators can utilize this information to help determine the adequacy of programs as potential collaboration or exchange partners. Practitioners may also use the information to recruit students as potential interns or employees as hospitality businesses expand globally and their customers become more international
