Abstract

Debate about sustainability centers on the responsibilities of consumers and businesses working towards a sustainable future with a new focus on business management. This focus should be considered as a key component within undergraduate hospitality management programs with varied courses, content and sequencing. Graduates would possess a range of perspectives and competences increasing awareness of good sustainable business practices. To develop a meaningful curriculum model, three stakeholders (students, educators, and industry professionals) were assessed on their perspectives of environmental sustainability, its importance in hospitality curricula, and suggestions for course content and pedagogic approaches. The results suggest significant differences between the groups in their attitudes, behaviors, interest in sustainability, importance of environmental issues and topics in the curriculum.
