Abstract
Students' career intentions determine the need for hospitality and tourism management (HTM) programs. This paper aims to systematically review the literature on HTM students' career intentions and to uncover trends in associated research and specific publications. Text analysis reveals three topics: HTM students' current career intentions, factors affecting these intentions, and HTM students' entrepreneurial intentions. Most studies were quantitative with research objectives involving bachelor students. Results suggest that the HTM education system must clarify and standardize its career values. More qualitative and comparative studies are needed to better understand students' career intentions, address additional research objectives, and consider macro-environmental factors to predict students’ career intentions.
