EDITOR’S
NOTE
rofessionals in the hospitality business are
Ppassionate to provide the necessary services to
the customers and cater to their needs. And
those in the education sector have been constantly
improvising ways to include knowledge and training to
meet the constant demands of the changing market
scenario.
Only such institutes providing education in hospitality
management can survive the test of times. The need for
grooming students in the face of adversities became
pronounced in the past one year and institutes have
been doing remarkably well in this regard.
The food and the tourism industry had been seeing an
upward swing in the past couple of decades or so and
with this rose the demand for educational institutions to
groom the future hospitality professionals as per the
requisites of the global trends.
HOSPITALITY
MANAGEMENT
GETS BETTER

The past one year has seen uncertainty in the
economic performance of the hospitality business that
was doing great until the pandemic. But this has also
given rise to improvise ways and means to set the ball
rolling post-lockdown.
While those in the hospitality business have adapted to
the new normal and have introduced certain
procedures mandatory to maintain hygiene and
distance, hospitality educational institutes swung into
action and began incorporating ways and means to
train their students in the face of any crisis.
The hospitality business has been impacted severely
by the global pandemic that shook the world a year
ago. Across the world, the academic curriculum of the
hospitality institutions are being re-constructed and
polished to address the concerns of the future travel
needs, safety protocols and environmental regulations.
But the latter half of this year looks bright for the
tourism industry with the vaccination being
administered. Hotel industry has opened up, albeit with
all the safety and cleanliness guidelines prescribed by
the government. The same is true with the tourism
industry. After tremendous losses in 2020, the industry
is now gearing up to meet the demands of travel
enthusiasts and food lovers.
Hospitality courses are focusing on the need to
change with the demands of the changing times and
according to World Travel and Tourism Council, the job
market is also expected to see a rise this year.
We, at The Knowledge Review, have come up with
some of the best institutions grooming the future
hospitality managers. For the cover story, we have
Savitribai Phule Pune University that is providing a
unique undergraduate course – BBA in Hospitality and
Facilities Management. In the Institute of the Month

BBA(HFM) MISSION
STATEMENT:
To be an institution of excellence

BBA(HFM) Course Outcomes –
The Bachelor of Hospitality and
Facilities Management (BBA-HFM) is
a three-year full-time degree course.

BBA in Hospitality and Facilities
Management is a professional
management discipline that focuses on
efficient and effective delivery of
support services to organizations. The
curriculum of the program is crafted to
bridge the ever-growing demand of the
services industry. This course is one of
its kind which provides a distinctive
combination of business administration
with a thrust on study and application
of service management. Varied and
comprehensive elements of retail,
facilities, event, hospitality and
customer relationship management
have been incorporated to enrich the
curriculum. The course prepares
students with analytical,
administrative, interpersonal and
technological skills. It propels high
standards in education and professional
finesse to hone competencies in the
field of management.
In the words of Dr. Surbhi Jain,
Professor and Head of Department of
PUMBA, “The syllabus of three years
of BBA (HFM) includes a plethora of
curricular and co-curricular
activities.” She further adds that "the
course offers a blended system that
amalgamates personalized inputs, with
online and offline delivery".
Importantly, it also offers students to
work in subject specific laboratories
that give them real-life simulation
experience, allowing them to work on
their own and develop skills that open
avenues of corporate placements,
further studies and innovative start-
ups".
Popular Across Borders
The course attracts both Indian and
international students. In the current
academic year of BBA (HFM) we have
an international batch of students from
Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Africa

The service industry in India and world
over has been growing steadily over
the past few years. Even through this
pandemic situation, the sector has been
able to recover quite quickly.
Automation has taken over in many
industries including hospitality, facility,
retail operations. However, all service
sectors with a customer interface will
remain being dominated by humans
rather than automations taking over
completely.
The course inputs help students to hone
their personalities and develop a
competitive advantage that holds them
in good stead upon attaining the
degree. Graduating students can select
from an array of work and study
opportunities.
Student Co-curricular and

holistic development of our students.

guidance from senior student cell

cells that a student of BBA (HFM) must
join, contribute and gain from these
invaluable learning experiences, which
bring in a great deal of esprit de corps
among them”.
The various co-curricular and
enrichment activities that a student is
part of are:

the future learning more effective and efficient.
Tackling COVID- 19
In current crisis, it is certain that health and safety would be
the topmost deliberation and priority post-COVID-19, for
hotels and for all hotel management institutes. To impart the
right kind of knowledge, BCIHMCT has developed new
SOPS and policies to conduct the practical sessions and
theory classes as well. It has taken pivotal steps to
emphasize the contact-less service into the college while
doing simulating practice, especially while serving food,
hygiene during food preparation in various kitchen areas.
To prepare the students, faculty has included awareness
modules on the possible transferable diseases, social
distancing, and its impact on guests. A certificate course on
Covid-19 would be advisable for all students.
Producing Talented and Industry Ready Professionals
BCIHMCT is focused towards creating world class
manpower. Continuous upgradation of the curriculum and
regular interaction with experts from the industry along
with active association and partnership with world class
institutions and hotels help the institute in achieving its

the difference that sets them apart.
The institute is covering topics like tourism, management
operations, business tactics, marketing, aviation and other
core hospitality courses in its curriculum and has succeeded
in developing more confident, smart and industry-ready
people. They are not reluctant to do a particular job but
more often they are excited to accept new opportunities. It
also requires a different set of skills to allow a student to get
employment anywhere in the world.
Hotel management can be considered as a program with
several opportunities though it offers excellent career
options. BCIHMCT is aiming to create awareness and
produce more talented and industry-ready professionals
who can be absorbed by the industry immediately.

thrived on adapting to the global needs of the industry by
inculcating the right spirit in the minds of students. Students
learn to tackle difficult situations with utmost dexterity and
never be overwhelmed with it. The institute is always

industry and the academia by taking it to the next level.T R

Changing
Times

Hospitality
Sector
in 2021
The year 2020 saw the global emergence of
the Covid-19 pandemic and many
governments responded to this develop-
ment with massive country-wide lockdowns. The
Indian government followed suit, all the while
hoping that this would pass over like a bad storm.
The lockdowns put in place as a response to the
Covid-19 pandemic had unfathomable impact on
the economy. Many businesses were shut down,
industries disrupted, and lives destroyed. The
Indian hospitality industry was perhaps one of the
worst impacted industries.
Pre-Covid, the hospitality sector of India was on
a prominent trajectory and had been transforming
at a rapid rate. The sector was witnessing a
gradual transition from a physical asset-intensive
and product-focused business to a more experi-
ence-centric and customer-focused business
approach. But 2020 brought that bright growth
path of this industry to a screeching halt.

he coronavirus outbreak and the lockdowns put in
Tplace as a response to it introduced us to the new
normal wherein safety was of utmost importance.
This meant social distancing, daily sanitization and curbs
in social gatherings became a way of life. Consequently,
hospitality sector had to face massive trials and
tribulations due to high fixed costs, capital intensive
operations, and unfavourable debt service terms.
According to the financial ratings agency ICRA, the
domestic hospitality industry is expected to witness a
decline of over 65% in the fiscal year 2020-21, in a
report. The report by ICRA stated that this 65% contrac-
tion of the industry is due to massive operating and net
losses, wiping out cumulative profits of the four past
years. However, some estimates expect a sharp demand
recovery to take place in the later part of the financial
year 2021-22, as the vaccine rollouts gain traction.
The India hospitality sector has been one of the worst-hit
sectors, severely affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, and
subsequent lockdowns, which restricted mobility and
hotel occupancies in all the major markets, the ICRA
report stated.
Making the best of a bad situation
With the lifting of lockdown and travel restrictions, the
hotel industry has felt the need to recognise changing
customer preferences and adapt accordingly. Hospitality
veterans and aspiring players are curating innovative
ways to win the customer confidence back. They have
started to emphasise hugely on maintaining hygiene,
safety, ease of customer experience in reservations,
payments, lodging, and food and beverage (F&B)
services.
The recent industry developments have primarily
diverted their energies to strict safety and hygiene
protocols like –
Ÿ Frequent cleaning of public spaces
Ÿ Video displays to allow the view of the cooking
process
Ÿ Enhanced room cleaning practices
Ÿ Regular sanitization of high-touch points like elevator
buttons, sitting areas, doorknobs, etc.
Ÿ Temperature check of visitors at the entry
Ÿ Sanitising the visitors
However, all these standard operating procedures come
at a high-operational cost and have never been factored
in during the strategizing and budgeting process by
hoteliers.
Moving forward, we can expect innovations to guide the
path to recovery in the coming years. With the aim of
gaining a competitive advantage, hotel businesses are
increasingly focusing on strategies to provide holistic
experiential services in their offerings. Services are being
tailored to cater to unique requirements, all in the effort
to maximise customer retention and repeat business.
Many restaurant and hotel chains have opened online
revenue models to thrive during this crisis. Hotels are
rethinking the concept of ‘hospitality’ by creating new
array of services offering comfort to patrons’ homes and
offices. Food-delivery, housekeeping, facility
management and warehouse are already gaining a lot of
traction. End-to-end facility management of boutique
and corporate offices are one of the most anticipated
innovations to come in hospitality.
Owing to these changes, the next couple of years are sure
to see a complete turnaround in the experiential offering
and services of the restaurant and hospitality sector.
