FACULTY SPOTLIGHT
“I chose UNH because when my family and I visited the
campus it felt like home. Everyone here is so warm and
friendly and welcoming, I really enjoy being at this
school.” — Hannah Carty ’14
“The Hospitality program is very hands-on, which for
me, is the quickest way for me to acquire knowledge.
I have already received outlines of what is required
of me for the next four years.”
— Katie Smith ’15
“Coming to UNH is one of the best choices I’ve made.
I fell in love with the Hospitality and Tourism program
when I realized we have the opportunity to learn every
little aspect of the industry not just from textbooks, but
from actual experience. UNH has excellent professors
that really want you to succeed.”— Aimee Nunez ’16
Miranda Lee, Ph.D.
“At UNH, faculty members interact personally
with the students, providing them with the
tools, expertise, and advice they need to become
successful individuals.”
What is your educational background?
I received my M.S. in Hospitality and Tourism
from Purdue University and my Ph.D. in
Hospitality Administration from the University
of Nevada, Las Vegas.
What advice would you give to parents of
prospective students?
I would advise parents to keep in mind that
a good college not only grants a degree
but also creates an environment of career
resources that prepares students for the
highly competitive market. In our program,
we make sure that, upon graduaing, our
students have a resume that includes not
only a solid academic background but also
experience in the industry, which employers
value very highly.
How would you describe your role as an
academic advisor?
I encourage students to explore and identify
their career interests and strengths, and
then I help them to gain the knowledge and
experience needed for their career goals.
I facilitate domestic and international
internship opportunities for them and also
coordinate guest speakers for classes from
different hospitality segments.

EXPERIENTIAL. ENTREPRENURIAL. CAREER-FOCUSED.
100% Student-Managed Facilities
Two signature facilities in the Hospitality and Tourism Management program bring the real-world experience of
entrepreneurship and hospitality business ownership. Second year students manage these facilities (Fieldwork II)
gaining invaluable management experience that will stand out on their resume and snag the attention of employers.
The Hazell Nut Café is an on-site ‘lab’
and training facility where students find out,
first-hand, what it takes to run a business.
Sophomore students are responsible for the
management of the entire operation, including
staff training, menu development, marketing, product purchasing
(working with local suppliers), inventory management, accounting,
sales and revenue management, and financial forecasting.
FACULTY SPOTLIGHT
Jeffery’s Fusion Catering is a unit
of our restaurant training facility that
is 100% managed by students in the
event and tourism concentration.
Students, similar to the Hazell Nut Café, plan and execute
an average of 30 events per year, from small meetings of
20 or less to large gatherings of 150 and over.
Chris Gentile, CHE
Academic Director, Food Service Operations
I hold degrees from The Culinary Institute of America, and the University of New Haven. I also have
hospitality industry certifications (CHE-Certified Hospitality Educator, Food ServSave Certified) and
over 20 years of experience in the industry, which included owning my own businesses. In addition,
I provide small business consulting serices to local foodservice entities. I take a dynamic approach
to identifying the needs of students, constructively guiding them, based on my industry, academic,
and life experiences.

JEFFERY HAZELL ’83
B.S. Hotel and Restaurant Management
I have come full circle in many ways. As a kid I helped out on my father’s
Massachusetts lobster boat but wanted nothing to do with being a
lobsterman as I got older. At 15 I got a job as a busboy
and fell in love with the restaurant business.
The restaurant management
program was what attracted me to the University.
In my junior year, I interned at Disney World.
the course of my professional life.Fast forward
That one experience shaped
to today — I’m the owner of Bar Harbor Lobster Company,
Florida’s largest distributor of New England seafood, supplying grocery
stores, specialty shops, restaurants, and resorts throughout the state.
Jeffery Hazell has given back generously to UNH, funding both Jeffery’s Fusion Restaurant
campus and the Hazell Nut Café. He also established the Hazell Center for Hospitality Sales and
Event Management, providing further funding for students to gain entrepreneurial experience.
I chose the University of
New Haven because this
was the only school that
offers a hands-on learning
experience of owning my
own establishment. Which means giving me the keys and
allowing me to make mistakes and learn from them.
“Although owning a business is a difficult thing
to do, the advantage of having this opportunity
is that it is a low risk environment.”
However, the business does still run like any other. I can tell
you, now that I have this experience I totally understand why
small businesses fail within the first year. This opportunity is
helping me transition into becoming a leader and the successful business owner that I have always dreamed of being.

Travel the world
Study Away activities are trips within the United States
but outside of the tri-state region. ‘Spring Break in
Las Vegas’ is our main study away program aimed at
understanding the workings of the Gaming and Casino
Industry. Over the Spring Break week, students travel
to Las Vegas exploring the diverse offerings of hotels,
entertainment, and attractions.
Understanding cultural differences and the global
marketplace is critically important for students in
hospitality and tourism. Study abroad enables an
appreciation and knowledge of other cultures.
Students who study abroad command salaries 25%
higher than those who do not. HTM study abroad
opportunities include:
Research
. Fall: A semester-long program,
Bond University, Australia
Students may apply for the Summer Undergraduate
Research Fellowships to conduct independent
research studies. Past student recipients of the fellowship include Laura McLoughlin - Don’t Let the Bed
Bugs Bite: An Analysis of Pest Control Practices In
The Lodging Industry and Dipti Gawankar - Exploring
Sustainability Practices in the Hotel Industry.
. Spring: U.K. Student Exchange at the
University of Lincoln
. Summer in Italy: A four-week food, wine,
and culture tour through Prato, Florence,
Tuscany and other regions in Italy.
I received my Bachelor of
Science degree in Hotel,
Restaurant and Travel
Administration from the
University of Massachusetts
at Amherst and my Juris
Doctor from Albany Law
School. I have worked
previously at Walt Disney
World and numerous restaurants on the East Coast. I
currently teach Legal Aspects of Hospitality and Tourism,
Bar and Beverage Mgmt, Club Mgmt, Advanced Cuisine
Mgmt & Technique, Hospitality Information
Technology Mgmt and Convention & Meeting Planning. As a Professor in the HTM Department I provide
guidance, support and feedback to any students with
questions or issues regarding their course work, industry
experience and college student life. Having received a
degree in hotel, restaurant and travel administration, I
have had many of the same experiences as my current
students and, therefore, I am able to help enhance each
student’s personal development and career growth.

GO… GRADUATION: THE INDUSTRY AWAITS
COMPREHENSIVE. PROFESSIONAL. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT.
The final year of the HTM undergraduate degree is focused on applying the knowledge and skills learned over the last
3 years. Students partake in a yearlong capstone course that combines all areas of executive management in hospitality
and tourism, including business development, strategic planning and problem analyses. Students engage in a consulting
project with a local business, business etiquette across cultures, and personal professional development.
Fourth year highlights:
. Prepare property management plans
. Refine your job interview skills
. Present a financial plan to an industry executive
. Build final business portfolio of projects
. Learn professional business etiquette
. Engage in sustainable Hotel & Resort
business development
. Obtain guidance for Graduate School, Hotels,
Resorts, Inns, Bed & Breakfast
“Over the summer of 2013, I interned at a Sheraton in Hsinchu, Taiwan. I was a Food
and Beverage intern and rotated around the different food outlets the hotel offered. This
experience opened my eyes to how different the hospitality industry can be in different
parts of the world. Our department here at UNH is more than just a major — it’s a
family. If I ever needed anything, I know any one of my peers would help me out in a
heartbeat.” — Christopher Bermudez ’14
“As a student in the Fast Track Program, I was able to take certain courses during my
three years as an undergraduate that would waive certain graduate courses, allowing
me to earn my 3+1 M.B.A. with just one more year of study.” — Lauren Kocivar ’14
PROVE TO YOURSELF YOU

INDUSTRY LEADER
“Currently, I am the Graduate Assistant for the
HTM Department. During the summer of 2013, I
received admission to UNH’s Master’s in Business
Administration Program. The university offers a
4+1 MBA program that helps College of Business
graduates enter the workforce earlier, degree in
hand, through course waiving.” — Peter Reilly ’13
ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT
Wes Santos ’13
General Manager, Hilton Garden Inn Savannah Airport
History in
Hospitality:
Wes’s hotel background began in
high school at a
property in Norwalk,
Connecticut. His first
hotel jobs included
waiter, front desk
agent, and shuttle driver. He showed a passion
for the industry and moved up the ladder quickly.
Shortly thereafter, Wes became interested in the
Food and Beverage aspect of the industry and went
on to a Marriott property in Shelton, Connecticut,
where he started as banquet captain and eventually
became Assistant General Manager. During this
time, Wes enrolled in Norwalk Community College
and then transferred to the University of New Haven
to pursue his bachelor’s. Upon graduation, Wes
moved to Charlotte, North Carolina, becoming
General Manager of a Marriott property at the age
of 24. “When I first got into this industry, I had no
idea what my ultimate goal was, but I knew I had a
true passion for the industry and wanted to learn as
much as I could. I have been very fortunate to work
for some really great people who paved the way for
me.” Wes had great success at the Marriott property
and, after his first year as a General Manager, won
Diamond General Manager of the Year for Fairfield
Inn & Suites by Marriott. He was also recognized
nationally from AH&LA as the 2012 Stevan Porter
Emerging Hospitality Leader of the Year. In January
2014, Wes was promoted to the Hilton Garden Inn
as General Manager and currently resides in Savannah, Georgia. LinkedIn has Wes’s complete profile.
UNH-HTM:
“The HTM program definitely helped pave the way
for my career. It was great to learn from industry
professors and staff who knew the ins and outs
of the business. In our business, it is essential
to have not only theory but also practice, and
UNH-HTM promoted the importance of this. So
many GMs I work with share the same story. Some
started bussing tables, others worked at the front
desk or in administrative sales positions. My
advice to future students? Take advantage of all
that the program offers, as the experience you gain
will translate in the ‘real world.’ Get involved in an
aspect of the industry early in your college career,
find an area you are passionate about, get advice
from those who have been there, and have a little
fun along the way.”
