Attention Employers!
Our students are highly qualified as our program and the university requires them to take standard business classes (management, marketing, accounting, finance, law, economics, languages, etc.) along with hospitality, tourism, and geography courses.
If you have any open position announcements, please send them to Dr. Jeffery Kreeger at jkreeger@ccsu.edu.

Thus, both entry and mid level positions are more than appropriate.
