The Edge Hotel School is the home of degrees in hospitality and events management at the University of Essex. Here not only do you study the theory to achieve a degree in hospitality or events management, you gain invaluable experience in a real 4* hotel. The Hotel Management degree is one of a kind course in the UK and combines hotel experience and industry knowledge to develop the specialist skills required of future hospitality managers. This is a two-year intensive course involving around 45 weeks of study per year with around six weeks of annual holiday which will enable you to fast-track to your career.

Your course will include modules that cover topics such as: customer experience and culture, gastronomy and food trends, finance management, human resources management, marketing and sales, entrepreneurship and business strategy. There are also sessions on research methods, presentation skills and referencing to assist you with your learning, as well as sessions on CV writing and behavioural interview techniques.

Your Hotel Management degree has been designed to provide a mix of assessment approaches, including: essays, exams, conference posters, presentations, reflective statements, reports, the dissertation and an events project. The consultancy project enables you to work on a project or problem for an external client. Past consultancy projects have included social media and marketing strategies, brand development and new hotel launches. Many Edge Hotel School students have been offered job opportunities with their level 6 project clients having proven themselves to such a high level. The Professional Performance Assessment (PPA) which takes the form of a mock interview is used throughout our courses to allow you to reflect, practise and improve your interview skills before embarking on interviews for your first graduate role.
