Hospitality jobs are often associated with low-paying, entry-level service positions, but hospitality management and leadership positions are quite different. A hospitality degree gives you the advantage of bypassing the entry-level jobs to access supervision and management positions directly after graduation.
According to one of the USA's largest employment websites, Monster.com, the average salary among the top ten best paying hospitality jobs in the USA is roughly 68,000$ a year with a restaurant management job being closer to 50,000$/year and a General Manager being paid closer to 100,000$/year.
