Reaching Out

Dr Qu Xiao attended the preparation meeting to launch the China Hotel Owners Committee, a sub-organisation of China Tourist Hotels Association devoted to China's hotel owners, in Beijing, China on 20 December 2008.


The SHTM Mentorship Programme 2009 kicked off on 7 February. The School welcomed 50 mentors and 80 student mentees. The programme will give the mentees opportunity to learn from the mentors and gain insight of the hospitality industry.


Six BSc students taking the subject "Strategic Management for Tourism and Hospitality Businesses" conducted a site visit to the Minden Hotel, where they interviewed the owner, Mr Robert Wang on 25 February 2009. Delivered by Dr Norman Au, this practical subject requires students to analyse an organisation and evaluate the long-term strategic issues that affect hotel, catering and tourism.
