Question

Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

Technically speaking : YES. Practically speaking : YES, with some real hard work and adapting to altogether new environment. Since hotel management is a specialised field in itself which requires different skill sets, different professionals and different kind of hard work, you would need to undertake a properly professional training to make this big career shift from BCA to hotel management. You need to weigh your interests, aptitude, personality traits, aspirations etc. Personality traits of being hard working, diplomatic in communication, humble and flair for services are very important to make career in Hospitality. One good option is to pursue M.Sc. In hospitality good institution of repute. There are quite a few good institutions providing the Masters programs in hotel management. You need to make the right and informed choice. Some parameters to chose the institution for Hospitality courses are: Does the college / university have curriculum designed with industry consultations and feedback? Does it have enough practical exposure to make students adapt to the highly demanding career. Does it train for technologies, equipment, software like fidelio for improving employability. Are the soft skill modules part of curriculum for developing the personality of students. In-house training infra: for example, LPU has its own full fledged hotel within campus for practical exposure. Does the college have diversity of students, to make students work effectively in cross cultural teams. Ultimately the industry is based on extra ordinary service ! The students who are exposed to many different cultures, are better equipped to handle the situations involving different cultures. Are the management subjects also part of curriculum? It is a big plus if they have. Placements: Most important of all as your career must make a headstart from campus itself. There are quite a few institutions which tick all the right boxes with these parameters. Some IHMs, TAJ, IIHM and LPU Punjab have made a name for themselves with solid track records. Since you have already done BCA you will also have some advantage in getting your dream jobs as many recruiters look for people with technical skills in computers for many functions. Wish you all the very best. DVD.
