Hospitality Management Laboratory (Igarashi Seminar)

Research and practice of hospitality management

Our goal is to promote tourism in Tokyo, regional cities, and overseas, and we are engaged in the research and practice of hospitality management through a three-step process: "Know," "Understand," and "Do." Our current projects include product planning for hotels and bridal companies, proposing tourism promotion measures to hot spring associations, and empirical research on hospitality management.
Seminar students are closer than friends, not just lovers! Because we are colleagues aiming for the same industry like hotels and bridal services, we learn a lot from each other, thinking, "I didn't know you have that perspective and way of thinking!" Projects are by no means easy, but seasonal Events and birthday celebrations have a clear balance between ON and OFF, allowing us to spend fulfilling time.
Every year, our seminars achieve a 100% enrollment rate and a 100% job placement rate, with graduates actively working primarily in the hospitality industry!

Instructor

Instructor Genichi Igarashi
Message from the instructor We emphasize activities that involve "everyone," such as ① everyone passing the certification exams we work on in the seminar, ② everyone participating in projects, and ③ everyone receiving job offers from their desired companies. The GPAs of the seminar students range widely from less than 2.0 to nearly 4.0, and we respect each individual's personality. The ideal seminar student is someone who is full of hospitality and possesses unique and sharp strengths.
