Our program developed immensely over the past three decades, and I know that those who studied and/or supported us share my joy in achieving this historic milestone. When I arrived at UCF in 1983 to establish the Hospitality Management Department, it was a struggle to , find funding and support. Fortunately, the then-blossoming Central Florida tourism industry recognized the value in our program and through its support, we evolved from a small department into the largest full­ fledged college in the United States.

    III. Budget A. Use Table 2 in Appendix A to display projected costs and associated funding sources for Year 1 and Year 5 of program operation. Use Table 3 in Appendix A to show how existing Education & General funds will be shifted to support the new program in Year 1. In narrative form, summarize the contents of both tables, identifying the source of both current and new resources to be devoted to the proposed program. (Data for Year 1 and Year 5 reflect snapshots in time rather than cumulative costs.) If the university intends to operate the program through continuing education on a cost recovery basis or market rate, provide a rationale for doing so and a timeline for seeking Board of Governors’ approval, if appropriate. The RCHM currently spends approximately $ 342,000 annually in E & G funds in its collaboration with the College of Education in support of the Ph.D. in Education – Hospitality Education track program. Since no new courses will be required to be developed to implement the Ph.D. in Hospitality Management and existing courses taught by the Rosen College will sustain students’ progress through this doctoral program, the $342,000 in E & G funds will be reallocated to the new stand-alone program in its first year. The only additional cost in the first year associated with moving this program from an existing track in Hospitality Management Education to a stand-alone program in Hospitality Management is the addition of $12 thousand in E & G funding for library acquisitions that has been proposed by the UCF Library.
