Research

The School of Hospitality Management and Tourism has over the years recognised the contribution that research can make to the quality and success of its curricula. The School recognises research as a fundamental aspect of its development and currently the School is engaged in specific research projects identified by focusing on national needs, on core strengths and unique knowledge domains within the School and Faculty. The general approach has been to identify two Research Themes per School with two generic areas per theme and two specific areas within each generic area.

Staff of the School are actively engaged in research. The main purpose of academic research is to make original contributions to knowledge and to impart this knowledge to students and share this knowledge amongst colleagues and institutional stakeholders. Academic research has followed two streams: academic and industry based.

On-going research includes such areas as Tourism, Economics, Law, Human Resource Management, Yield Management, Consumer Behaviour, and Information Technology.
