The Far Eastern University – Institute of Tourism and Hotel Management, or simply ITHM, is the academic institute offering culinary and hospitality programs of the Far Eastern University.[1] Established in 2011, ITHM teaches theory and practice in hospitality and tourism management aligned with international standards.

The Institute's Tourism and Hotel and Restaurant Management programs are accredited Level III by the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities on Accreditation (PACUCOA).[2] ITHM is also a member of the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA)[3] and an associate of the International Centre for Excellence in Tourism and Hospitality Education (THE-ICE).[4]

Brief history

[edit]

In the 2000s,[5] FEU offered a Bachelor of Science in Commerce major in Tourism Management under the Institute of Accounts, Business and Finance. The ITHM was then formed to handle the new Bachelor of Science in Tourism Management program (replacing the BS Commerce major in Tourism Management)[6] and Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management,[7] which was growing in student population at that time.

The Institute formally opened at the second semester of SY 2010–2011 with Reymund Mercado as its first dean.
