About Resort Management

Whenever people travel, they need a temporary place to call home. And the more people travel across the country or around the globe - the more homes away from home they will need. This shows why resort management is such an attractive program of study for students who seek a potentially lucrative career in the resort industry.

Sheboygan County, the immediate vicinity around Lakeland College, has become a national destination location for tourists, offering premier hotels, world-class golf courses, and natural scenic beauty. Lakeland's resort management program makes good use of these local assets in the training of its students.

Our resort management curriculum is one of the few dedicated programs of its type in the region. Whether one is focusing on the lodging, food service, or golf and tourism industries, resort management stands as one of Lakeland's most immediately practical majors.

Students who major in Resort Management will be able to:

• understand and apply business and economic concepts and theories to resort industry contexts;
• appreciate the scope, magnitude, and nature of employment within the resort industry;
• demonstrate their skills in, knowledge of, commitment to, and talent for the resort industry;
