Hospitality managers learn the business on the floor, in kitchens, front desks and event teams. The step into general management then asks for different skills: strategy, finance, marketing and managing people across a whole property or group. An MBA that is specialised for hospitality is built for exactly that step, and a part-time format lets you keep working while you study.
What this MBA is
The programme is a 180-credit MBA awarded by London Metropolitan University, UK, and delivered locally by ESOFT Uni. The course page states that the full 180-credit MBA is recognised by the University Grants Commission (UGC). It combines postgraduate management study with a hospitality specialisation.
All assessments are assignment-based, with no traditional examinations. The course page says this keeps the learning practical and skill-oriented, guided by an industry-approved academic panel.

Where the hospitality focus comes in
Two modules carry the specialisation directly: Strategy in Hospitality Management, and Project and Quality Management for Hospitality and Leisure. The rest are core MBA subjects, so you graduate with general management training applied to hospitality.
The final project
The Business Research Project is an applied piece of work on a real-world hospitality challenge. If you already work in a hotel, resort, restaurant group or events business, a problem from your own organisation makes the project more useful to your employer.
Who can apply
The course page lists these entry requirements.
A relevant undergraduate degree or an equivalent professional qualification.
Relevant work experience in hospitality or a managerial role, typically two or more years.
English language proficiency may be required. No test or score is named, so confirm this with ESOFT Uni.
The wording "typically" means the experience expectation is a guide. If you are close but short, ask before ruling yourself out.
