HM Alumni & Friends Speed Networking

Hospitality Management Speed Networking

The Speed Networking event is an event designed to engage our students with leaders in the hospitality community and culture, which we all know transcends beyond bricks and mortar.

We would like to provide access to our Hospitality Management Industry Partners and Alumni so that students can build their network and develop an awareness of the diversity in career paths and positions in our hospitality industry.  Another important aspect of this event is to develop our student’s networking skills through practice and feedback from industry partners who are interested in supporting the development of our future Hospitality Leaders.

This event is a great opportunity for students to meet industry partners that might have internships and/or jobs available now or in the future.  Even if not in search of an upcoming job or internship, it is always great to build your professional network.
