In collaboration with the J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation, the School of Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Management at NMSU is dedicated to providing career development resources, expanding student outreach, and promoting higher education. We connect students and hospitality industry partners to foster their interest in becoming qualified leaders in this exciting and diverse career field. We currently work with many organizations throughout NM and nationally as informational presenters, career and college fair vendors, sponsors and judges for career and technical education competitions, educator support, hosts for student visits to NMSU and retention and outreach for current NMSU students.
