According to the prediction of the World Tourism Organization, by 2020, China may become the fourth largest international tourist source country and a new international tourist destination in the world. By then, the scale of China's tourism industry will be six times as large as it is now, and tourism management majors will have broader employment and development channels. At present, China's tourist hotel industry is very short of middle and senior management talents with modern management level and pioneering ability.

But tourism management majors are all applied talents. The general principles of tourism management industry require managers to start with waiters and pour water from vegetables. With grassroots experience, they can manage the top and play a greater role in wisdom.
