The Recreation and Parks Management major prepares students to pursue careers in commercial recreation and special event management, leisure services management,
and therapeutic recreation, and prepares students to pursue graduate study at the master's
level. The program has been accredited by the NRPA/AALR Council on
Accreditation since 1981.
The Hospitality and Tourism Management major prepares students for a variety of management positions in the hotel, restaurant, and travel and tourism fields.
