I'm going into my senior year of high school, so I am beginning my college search. My number 1 choice is Bentley College in MA, because I want to major in business management. Can anyone here tell me what ski resort management is exactly because I want to see if I could possibly minor in this area.

Thanks!
 
im going for it this year, its not really as much buisness tho its grooming, snowmaking,park and pipe, lifts, alot of maintance stuff like that
 
oh shit really? i thought it had to do with scheduling events and other everday businesses of the resort...

shows how much i know! lol
 
true, i know you live in canada but Bentley is one of the top-ranked business schools in the nation, but im not sure if they have courses like that unfortunately :(
 
I graduated in '05 from Western State College in Gunnison CO (30 min from Crested Butte where I lived the whole time and still do)

Double Major:

Business

Recreation

Emphasis:

Ski and Resort Management

Sweet major, getting a bus degree, learning all that as well as the rec, and you def get to learn how to scheduale, manage people in a resort setting, etc.

Other schools like CMC (Colorado Mountain College) will teach you to run snow cats, lift opp. etc, in a two year program. those are in Leadville, Steamboat, Breck.
 
inm the US a college and university are the same thing pretty much, except a unvi is usualy a state school
 
A University has many schools within itself, which divides up majors into each corresponding school, while a college is just one school with a diverse set of majors.
