dc.description.abstractThe recent growth in Portuguese tourism has been reflected by the increase in the hospitality and tourist industry, emphasizing the importance of competent professional training in this sector. The high rotation rates of personnel in this sector has been acknowledged in previous studies. Several authors have questioned whether students applying for tourism related degrees recognize the characteristics of a career in this sector. Previous studies concluded that there were barriers to gender equality. In general, men received higher wages and held higher hierarchical positions compared to women. In contrast, women were typically higher academic achievers than men. Women were also distinguished as being more concerned with social and environmental issues, while men were more entrepreneurial with a greater interest in starting their own business. This study aimed to understand undergraduate students’ expectations regarding the hospitality industry, analyzing the relative differences between gender. A survey questionnaire was conducted on students of a Portuguese higher education institution with 1st-cycle degrees related to hospitality and tourism (n=329). According to the majority of career expectations considered, there were no differences between male and female students. However, gender differences were apparent with respect to “mobility – finding job anywhere” and the ambition to “become a supervisor/manager/director”, with men revealing higher levels compared to women.pt_PT
