Abstract	The research study recognized that, although the knowledge obtained from academic textbooks and traditional classes are important to post-secondary hospitality management curriculum as they provide numerous insights and perspectives of different methods to manage a particular avenue within the hospitality industry; it is not the only aspect of the student's education that needs to be considered, when considering readiness to enter the hospitality industry upon graduation. Therefore, there are two major purposes within this study: the study focuses on analysis and assessment of how students of hospitality management programs perceive experiential learning laboratories within their academic curriculum; and how these laboratories affect knowledge of hospitality management. Second, the study focuses on the examination and evaluation of qualitative data in the form of feedback from current students within a hospitality management program that have participated in experiential learning laboratories to understand perceived strengths and weaknesses of such learning opportunities. This doctoral thesis is focused on qualitative data using interviews; the results will be analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA).
