USJ launches Master in Hospitality management

The Saint Joseph University (USJ) Institut de Gestion des Enterprise (IGE) launched earlier in July two master degrees in the English language, which are, Hospitality Management, Luxury and Lifestyle and Lebanese and Mediterranean Gastronomy and Lifestyle. Also in the fall of 2018, the Institute will kick off a bachelor in Culinary Arts and Restaurant Management. During the launch ceremony, USJ president, Fr. Salim Daccash, underlined the aim of the new programs which is to keep with the constantly changing and developing hospitality labor market that requires cutting-edge skills and talents. Such genre of theoretical/applied programs demand the support of professional partners in order to ensure success. Clarifying the reason for choosing English as the teaching language for the degree, Daccash said it is because it is widely used in the global world of business and comes as part of the University’s efforts to improve disciplines employing the language for the year 2025, and which coincides with the 150th anniversary of USJ.
