Study Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Administration in New Orleans

Consider the possibilities! The French Quarter, Mardi Gras, jazz and heritage festivals, major sporting events! there's no place like New Orleans! Most major hotel chains are represented here and the metro area offers a wide variety of opportunities in restaurants, food-service companies, private clubs, tour companies, and convention service companies. New ventures such as the planning of the fourth expansion of our convention center, 32,500 hotel rooms, riverboat and land-based casinos, along with the uniqueness and charm of the French Quarter, our world-class cuisine, and jazz music make New Orleans perhaps the greatest "living laboratory" for hospitality and tourism management in the country.


Furthermore, New Orleans is surrounded by one of the most ecologically prolific regions in the country. Our virgin swamps, abundance of wetlands, and encompassing bodies of water are perfect for those interested in ecotourism. New Orleans' Aquarium of the Americas, Audubon Institute, and the forthcoming Insectarium are currently, and expected to be, popular attractions for tourists and locals. Why wouldn't you want to learn about the hospitality industry in one of the most unique and exciting tourist destinations in the world?
