The students were beyond impressed with the quality of the entire program and very excited about exploring new opportunities in the field of hospitality. On behalf of the entire TMCF team, we are immensely appreciative.

UNLV's reputation as a leader in hospitality education is well deserved. Our students learn from internationally recognized professors whose expertise is respected both in academia and across the hospitality industry. The Sands Center creates an environment that is academically rigorous while remaining supportive of student success.

When you're talking to someone like Professor Vince Eade or George Togliatti from the Mandalay Bay—the amount of experience these guys have is second to none. You don't get to talk to too many people that know so much about the industry, so just listening to them... listening to their experiences... listening to the way they've handled customers in the past was such an inspiration for us.

In my honest opinion the class exceeded my expectations in every way. The best part about the program was the instructors. They felt like real people with real experience that I could relate to.

It was really an enlightening experience to actually get to see these leading industry professionals come in and teach us different things that they’ve picked up along the way and just be able to go through a seminar and not only engage the instructor but the rest of the classmates who have also come from various backgrounds.

When you come to hear the lectures, you find the same problems that you have, but also you find the solutions; they understand my needs, so when the teacher, for example, talks about something you have in mind, you're surprised like, 'great… That's why I am here. I wanted to know about this.
