Pop-up restaurant is capstone project for hospitality management major

I am a senior at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a major in hospitality management and a minor in business. I chose hospitality management because I love to cook, and I have had unforgettable experiences that have left a memorable impact on me. Throughout my time here at the university, I developed a deeper understanding of what it means to work in the hospitality industry, specifically in a restaurant setting. To me h ospitality management means providing an open-armed, generous treatment to guests and creating a warm and safe environment through unforgettable experiences. Creating those memorable moments not only puts a smile on our guests’ faces, but also my own. It is the little things that make working in this industry worth it.

Along with my love for cooking, I have a passion to bake. It has always been a dream of mine to be a pastry chef. Here at the university, I have been able to make that dream become a reality. Over the past four years, my professors have challenged students to not only learn in the classroom but also experientially. From freshman to senior year, I was in three hands-on hospitality labs that pushed me outside my comfort zone with the intent to increase my learning experience. I was constantly challenged to create those memorable moments for guests.

As I enter my last semester, I am preparing to complete a capstone project. The task is to build a pop-up restaurant for one magical night. Everything I have learned over the last four years–accounting, finance, microcomputer applications, food production, and a professional internship in the restaurant industry–have prepared me for this project.

My capstone project, Citric, is a restaurant all about citrus fruits. The idea is to demonstrate new ways to use citrus in your everyday life. In the beginning, the project was very overwhelming due to an overload of course work and tight deadlines. Meal ideas were just flooding through my head and every little detail was nowhere near established. From countless meetings with my professors, to constantly retesting recipes, I finally pulled everything together. As the meal night approaches, all those restless nights and high-stress days are turning into a calming sensation. I feel as if everything I have worked for has paid off and it is time put my skills to the test and execute perfection. I trust that everything I can control is taken care of, and all the education I have acquired over the years has led me to accomplish my pop-up restaurant.

As I wrap up my last semester, I am grateful for the opportunities that were presented to me over the past four years. I have made great connections with my colleagues and professors. I look forward to what the future holds and owe it to the university for pushing me outside my comfort zone to learn experientially.

Hospitality Students’ Unique Capstone Highlights How Tourism Industry Can Raise Awareness to State’s Black History

As part of an innovative capstone project, hospitality and tourism management students worked together to learn about and promote Black history and innovation while exploring new ways to attract tourists to Connecticut when it is safe to travel.

April 20, 2021

By Renee Chmiel, Office of Marketing and Communications

Students, arms around each other, pose for a photo.

Ashley Cleary-Burke ’21 recently served as team leader on a project that included developing points of interest for a virtual race that highlighted Black history and innovation in Connecticut. Focusing on the West Haven and New Haven region, she and her teammates created a storyboard and then presented their ideas to their classmates, professor, and industry professionals.

A hospitality and tourism management (HTM) major , Cleary-Burke’s work was part of her HTM capstone class. The semester-long virtual tourism project enabled students to present their story map with significant historical locations that included museums, monuments, and businesses. They also pitched their ideas for how such a race could be implemented in Connecticut to generate revenue for the tourism industry, an industry hit particularly hard by the coronavirus global pandemic.

“I learned about working with different people and managing different skillsets,” said Cleary-Burke, who has served as a teaching assistant for two HTM classes and served as a manager of the University’s Hazell Nut Café in Maxcy Hall . “The most interesting part of this project was discovering my teammates’ strengths and weaknesses and using that knowledge to our advantage. One person’s strong skillset can benefit another member on the team.”

‘A very proud teacher moment’

In addition to her classmates and professor, Jan Jones, Ph.D. , Cleary-Burke and her team pitched their ideas to the Connecticut Office of Tourism . Each of the three teams focused on a different region of the state: Hartford, Farmington, or West Haven/New Haven. Students then merged the points of interest they identified and researched into one seamless race, which they named “Charge into Connecticut Black History.” The University was the final point of interest, signifying the end of the race, and students highlighted the University’s commitment to celebrating diversity and Black innovation.

Using ArcGIS , a geographic information system, students developed an online version of their storyboards, creating a story map outlining why tourists should visit each location.

“I believe it is important to promote history and culture in tourism because it educates people on a multitude of diverse backgrounds,” said Grace Simpson ’22, an HTM major. “It also is a great way to share stories that are significant to a particular area and culture. It was amazing how everyone came together and did their part on this project. The industry professionals, Dr. Jones, and our graduate assistant couldn’t have been more proud of the class.”

As part of the presentations, held via Zoom, students also pitched their ideas to Adams & Knight , an integrated marketing agency that oversees all tourism marketing for the state.

“The feedback we received from industry professionals about this project was overwhelmingly positive,” said Dr. Jones, coordinator for hospitality and tourism management at the University. “I was thrilled to see so many people attend our virtual event. Several practitioners commented on the timeliness and the need for this type of project across the nation.

“Overall, I was extremely impressed with the quality of the final presentation and the website that students developed in such a short period of time,” she continued. “I look forward to continuing to do more industry-based projects with our hospitality students. This was a very proud teacher moment for me.”

‘This project was very detailed oriented’

Developed as a way to address the need for more engaging trails related to specific historical and cultural aspects of destinations across the state, the project enabled students to work with the Connecticut Sports and Convention Bureau and the Connecticut Old State House . They focused on virtually capturing the attention of international tourists and encouraging them to visit Connecticut when it is safe to do so.

“This project was very detailed oriented,” said Simpson. “It entailed a lot of collaboration, communication, and hard work. There was a lot of research, editing, and re-editing involved through the whole process, and consistency and planning were crucial.”

Cleary-Burke, the team leader, says the project helped her build important skills that she will use in her career and complemented the coursework in her other classes – particularly her sport management event execution capstone. A sport management minor, she and her classmates in her capstone group, “Charger Blue,” worked with the Special Olympics of Connecticut to host the “Charger Olympics” at the University’s Kathy Zolad Stadium during one of the University’s Re-Charge Days.

“I was team leader for both capstone projects while taking a total of six classes, and I was always dedicated to providing assistance to my teammates,” she said. “I plan to work my way up through many operations management positions, eventually becoming a general manager of a sports/entertainment facility, and these experiences are preparing me for that."

Robotics in Hospitality: Students Present Strategic Insights with Industry Leaders for Capstone Project

Under the mentorship of Humber alumnus and Senior Manager of Asset Management at InnVest Hotels , David Butler , fifty-five Hospitality and Tourism Operations Management students in the HTOM 5503: Strategic Tourism and Hospitality Business Planning course worked in groups on a capstone project focusing on the deployment of robotics in hospitality.

Students formulated recommendations through their research, including interviews with David Butler and InnVest Hotels’ CIO McLean Xavier , alongside a site visit to observe the use of robotics at the Holiday Inn Express at Lombard Street in downtown Toronto. These insights covered areas such as identifying suitable segments of the guest journey that were more appropriate for robotic services, determining the most suitable hotel tiers for robotics, and outlining the steps a hotel ownership group should take to ensure successful implementation and scaling of robotics.

The top performing groups had the opportunity to present their projects in person to David Butler and Hospitality and Tourism Operations Management Program Co-ordinator, Kristy Adams, at the International Graduate School (IGS) .

UGA supports workforce development for hospitality and tourism industry

While the third annual UGA Hospitality and Tourism Summit took place at the University of Georgia Center for Continuing Education & Hotel, UGA student Scott Chapman hovered in the hallway, notebook in hand, confirming that fellow students were in their assigned places to help summit attendees bid on items in a silent auction.

Chapman, a senior in the capstone class for UGA’s Hospitality and Food Industry Management (HFIM) degree program, also scheduled fellow seniors in the class to register attendees, moderate panel discussions, ferry microphones to audience members during sessions, and staff designated posts during the day, in order to direct attendees to bathrooms, refreshment breaks, and lunch in the center’s Magnolia Ballroom.

This year, the capstone project for HFIM students was to work directly with the leaders and staff at the Georgia Center to plan and implement almost all aspects of the annual Hospitality and Tourism Summit. According to Chapman, a Savannah native, his internship at the Georgia Center’s hotel front desk prepared him for his summit assignment.

“That really taught me a lot about navigating needs,” said Chapman, who will begin work as a finance manager-in-training at the Denver Four Seasons Hotel after graduating in May.

The students’ duties included identifying speakers for panel discussions, pursuing sponsors, planning meal and break menus, organizing a silent auction, managing the budget and staffing the event. Many of the students had previously worked or interned with the Georgia Center, which provides a learning laboratory for the HFIM program. Working alongside their professional mentors made the summit an extended experiential learning opportunity.

Of more than 300 hospitality programs in the United States, very few have full-service hotels and conference centers that are run independently, like the Georgia Center, said John Salazar, who heads the HFIM program, based in the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences.

“The Georgia Center is the foundation of our program,” Salazar said. “We can modify the learning experience to meet the specific needs and wants of the students.”

Dan Remar, UGA assistant professor who teaches the capstone class, said he intentionally gave students little direction to help them line up speakers, organize the silent auction or plan the lunch menu. It was incumbent on them to use the skills they’d learned through the program and look to their mentors at the Georgia Center for guidance.

“You want them to problem solve and figure these things out,” Remar said. “You’re pushing them to learn without helping them. That’s the goal.”

“We’ll try to learn what works, what didn’t work, and continue next year,” Remar said.

One lesson learned was the importance of being prepared to handle the pivots often necessary in event management.

When Maya Dubos, a senior in the capstone class, realized a session might end earlier than planned, she checked with food services at the Georgia Center to see if the snacks and drinks scheduled for the morning break could be ready sooner.

“The biggest thing I’ve learned is to be flexible,” says Dubos, who served as assisting coordinator of the summit and will begin work as an event planner at Atlanta’s Cobb Galleria Centre after graduation. “You don’t have to have a plan, but you have to be able to make a plan.”

The event sold out with 160 registrations. About 80 people attended the summits in 2022 and 2023, with most of the attendees from UGA the first year, as HFIM faculty focused on introducing the university community to the program. In 2023, university faculty joined industry professionals in panel discussions.

This year summit registrations came from individuals in the hospitality and food industry in addition to the university community. Delta Airlines, IHG Hotels and Resorts, the Marriott’s Ritz Carlton Division, Sea Island Resort, and Waffle House were among the major companies represented. Their leaders shared their insights on food, lodging, conventions, tourism, marketing and more.

Their advice to the students? Get as much experience as possible.

“Work in as many restaurants as you can. You’ll get great experience seeing how different they can be,” Drew French, Your Pie founder and 2005 UGA graduate, said during the All About Food panel discussion. “You’ll learn really early whether you love it or not.”

What is an MBA Capstone Project?

An MBA capstone project is the final step in many MBA programs. It’s here that MBA students put all that they’ve learned into practice by analyzing a meaningful and strategic business question. Often, this involves hands-on work within an existing company, but not always: MBA capstone projects can take the form of startup business plans and business simulations, too.

No matter their format or focus, each capstone project will likely be the most intensive and rewarding feature of an MBA candidate’s journey.

A capstone project is not the same as a thesis project, although they do share some qualities. Thesis projects are focused on theory and research and are based on the situations one would face in academia. Often taking the form of a large research paper, thesis projects can last the entire final year of an academic program, and some students may even begin before that, with the ultimate goal of contributing new knowledge to the canon of business research.

MBA capstone projects, by contrast, are more practical and similar to situations one would face in the business world. Here, students work in teams to answer strategic business questions. MBA capstones are hands-on immersions with real-world consequences, and they can have a major impact on an MBA graduate’s program experience and career.

Read on to see some examples of MBA capstone projects and get a walkthrough of the general process.

Stages of an MBA Capstone Project

Most MBA capstone projects occur during a program’s final year and can last anywhere from four weeks to a full semester. They often include some form of instruction (whether through prerequisite courses or scheduled advising) and practical application.

While MBA capstone programs will vary in format from program to program, they generally include the following stages:

Topic Selection
Preliminary Research
Project Execution
Written Report
Final Presentation

It’s not necessarily over after the final presentation, either: some capstone projects carry over beyond the MBA program, leading to successful startup businesses, offers of employment, or investment opportunities.

Choosing a Capstone Topic

Many MBA programs provide some structured options for choosing a capstone topic. This can mean students are allowed to select from a list of possible partnership opportunities; it can also mean that faculty advisors will work with students to find a topic that meets the student’s strengths, weaknesses, and goals. But in other programs, MBA students are more free to choose their topic and their partner organization.

In their capstone project, MBA students should select a topic where they can answer a meaningful and strategic business question: one that’s complex enough to warrant significant time and energy, but also realistic enough to be achievable. These are not theoretical questions; each is tailored to a specific real-world business.

Some examples of MBA capstone topics include:

What are the short-term outcomes of a mutual fund’s impact-investing initiative?
How do multinational companies’ diversity and inclusion efforts adapt to non-Western office environments?
What is the market feasibility of a startup’s application in target demographics?
How can a recently downsized organization recover employee morale while balancing the budget?

The capstone topic must be specifically relevant to the partner company or organization. To this end, MBA students should heavily research the company’s strengths, weaknesses, and objectives before selecting their topic.

Similarly, MBA students should also turn that lens on themselves: what problems do they want to explore in their business careers, what causes do they find interesting, and how can their unique skill set be best put to use?

How an MBA Capstone is Graded

Some programs provide MBA candidates with a rubric for how their capstone will be graded, while others do not. Most capstones are graded through their ability to demonstrate key business skills (theoretical, practical, applied, and reflective) across functional areas (finance, human resources, marketing, and operations).

The final presentation is also a factor, as this is where the candidate demonstrates what they learned, or didn’t, through the course of the capstone.

An MBA candidate will rarely fail their capstone project. After all, they’ve made it through practically an entire MBA program up until then. Even if the project is a failure from a business point of view, an MBA candidate will likely still be able to effectively analyze where and why the project failed, and what lessons can be learned from that failure going forward.

Examples of MBA Capstone Projects

Ucla anderson school of management capstone project.

The MBA program at UCLA Anderson School of Management offers three capstone options: the Global Access Program (GAP), the Business Creation Project (BCP), and Anderson Student Asset Management (ASAM).

In the GAP, students partner with high-growth global companies in a market-entry consulting project. Working in five- to six-person teams, students bid on partnership opportunities, perform five to six months of research, then travel internationally to the partner organization. Combining interviews, meetings, and research, the students develop effective strategic business plans to advance the organization’s growth and present it to the organization’s executives, potential investors, and industry professionals.

Along the way, students are advised by faculty members who have directed, invested in, and provided consulting services to leading companies worldwide. In the last 20 years, over 3,000 students have completed the GAP, impacting 738 companies across 23 countries.

For students with an entrepreneurship focus, the BCP offers them the chance to launch a company. Students will work in teams across two academic quarters after taking two prerequisite courses to prepare their business plans. Through extensive research, development, and implementation, students will put strategies for every aspect of their business into practice. In three years, the BCO has had 47 teams and launched 24 companies.

The ASAM program is for current and aspiring quants who want experience as successful long-term portfolio managers. Guided by a faculty advisor and oversight committee, students in the ASAM program will select an optimal mix of equity, fixed income, and cash investments. Each four-member team manages approximately $200,000. Students will rotate work roles between that of an executive board member, strategy lead, risk manager, and programmer.

Carnegie Mellon University Tepper School of Business Capstone Project

The MBA program at Carnegie Mellon University Tepper School of Business offers students two different forms of capstone program: Strategic Management of the Enterprise and Management Game.

The Strategic Management of the Enterprise capstone is an experiential learning course where students are matched with one of several consulting projects to solve business problems partner companies face. This is a more traditional capstone program, focused on the practical application of business skills learned through the MBA curriculum. Past clients have included Walmart, P&G, and Ameriprise.

Tepper’s Management Game capstone is an applied management experience. Student teams run a computer-simulated multinational manufacturing company for three years, acting as its executive committee. Taking place at the end of the MBA program’s curriculum, the Management Game capstone focuses on the unstructured nature of business problems and prods students to use all the functional skills they’ve learned so far. External-facing exercises include interaction with industry partners and are related to each student’s career choices.

Uniquely, the Management Game capstone is graded by external professionals on the merit of the results students deliver; students can receive direct feedback from corporate partners throughout the process.

University of Dallas Satish & Yasmin Gupta College of Business Capstone Consulting Experience

The capstone consulting experience in the MBA program at the University of Dallas allows students to solve a strategic problem an organization faces. Since it was launched in 1973 as one of the first student consulting and research programs in the U.S., this capstone consulting experience has prepared graduates to consult with business leaders. MBA students in this capstone consulting experience have completed over 900 projects for over 500 companies including Fortune 1000 firms, entrepreneurial ventures, and nonprofit organizations.

Under the guidance of faculty members, students participate on a team assigned to work with a real organization on a 12-week comprehensive project. Every team will work together to provide actionable recommendations, including a proposal, industry/market research, a presentation, and recommendations in the form of a report.

Matt Zbrog is a writer and researcher from Southern California. Since 2018, he’s written extensively about how new and aspiring business school students can best plan their education and careers. In the Two Views series, he conducts detailed interviews with recent business school alumni, with a particular focus on the choice between in-person, online, and hybrid learning models. His Femme-BA series highlights business schools that not only excel academically but also take unique and robust steps to support a diverse and inclusive learning environment for women.

NEWS RELEASE:

UCLA Excels in Local and National Real Estate Case Competitions

Los Angeles (November 20, 2018) — UCLA graduate student teams won the 2018 NAIOP SoCal Real Estate Challenge and placed second in the 2018 National Real Estate Challenge hosted by the University of Texas at Austin. Both case competitions took place on November 15, 2018, at UCLA and UT Austin, respectively.

The NAIOP SoCal Real Estate Challenge team consisted of Class of 2019 UCLA Anderson MBA students Robert Anthony , Jeff Eigenbrood , Nick Marino and Ben Morrison , and UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture student Daniel Polk. The annual event, sponsored by the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties (NAIOP), presents a specific real estate case challenge to a team of students at UCLA and USC. In addition to providing a rich learning experience that requires participating students to produce high-quality professional work within a limited time frame, the competition is designed to showcase the talents and creativity of the next generation of real estate professionals.

This year, the NAIOP Challenge involved two undeveloped parcels on 11 acres of land located at the southwest corner of Del Amo Avenue and Newport Avenue in Tustin, California. The city acquired the property in 2007 and it has been vacant since that time. The site is a highly visible infill adjacent to the 55 freeway and near the massive Tustin Legacy, the 1600-acre former Tustin Marine Corps Air Station, which is currently being redeveloped. The site sits in an area of the Pacific Center East Specific Plan, which is a major employment center in Tustin that will continue to grow.

UCLA’s team proposed a project they titled Solana (Spanish for solarium or sunny spot) that was inspired by strawberry farming that had once taken place on the site. Solana is a natural extension of the nearby Tustin Legacy project, which involves the transformation of 16,000 acres of raw land into a massive master-planned commercial and residential community.

UCLA’s Solana consists of two select service hotels (305 keys), 240 multifamily units, 10,000 square feet of retail, 75 units of 80 percent affordable housing and more than 150,000 square feet of community space. “I am enormously proud of our NAIOP Challenge team,” said Tim Kawahara, executive director of the Richard S. Ziman Center for Real Estate at UCLA. “Our students proposed a very thoughtful project that provides both commercial value and community benefits to the City of Tustin.”

In its 21st year, the NAIOP Real Estate Challenge celebrates the rivalry between USC and UCLA and illustrates the robust real estate programs at both universities. The winning team is awarded the Silver Shovel, which is inscribed with all past winners’ names. In addition, a $5,000 contribution is made in the name of the winning school to the Challenge for Charity (C4C), benefiting the Special Olympics.

National Real Estate Challenge team (left to right): DaJuan Bennett (’20), Austen Mount (’20), Anne Sewall (’20), James Blake (’20), Robert Walls (’20)

The National Real Estate Challenge team from UCLA consisted of Class of 2020 UCLA Anderson MBA students DaJuan Bennett , James Blake , Austen Mount , Anne M. Sewall and Robert Walls . The challenge, held annually at the McCombs School of Business at UT Austin, is an invitation-only case competition for student teams from the nation’s top-ranked business schools. The case competition involves the analysis of a recent real estate transaction consummated by a leading global real estate firm. Judging panels consist of senior executives from leading real estate companies across the U.S., creating outstanding opportunities for learning, networking and recruitment.

This year, the case centered on a hold/sell analysis for a recently delivered, eight-story office building in “River Valley” (later revealed to be Austin, TX). The property had been a successful 80-percent leased development for the fund. Teams were given the following options: sell the building immediately; hold on to the property with the existing debt; re-finance the property at a higher leverage point (either 65 or 75 percent LTV instead of the 50 percent LTC loan in place); or sell the property and use the proceeds to pursue another office development in “West Hamilton” (later revealed to be Santa Monica, CA). Student teams were prompted to model the two investments to determine the quantitative benefits of each option, but also to look at the national office market, consider the impact of interest rates on cap rates and determine whether co-working and remote working would impact leasing either of the projects.

The UCLA team recommended holding on to the existing property and refinancing the building at 65 percent LTV. The thought process was, while the base case scenario provided was likely to occur, the team wanted to ensure a comfort level with the investment in a downside scenario, which made the pipeline investment and 75 percent LTV financing options too risky. Conversely, the team suggested that selling the property now or maintaining the 50 percent LTC loan were too conservative given the quality of the property and the strength of the “River Valley” market.

“The UT Austin McCombs School of Business National Real Estate Challenge is among the most prestigious real estate case competitions in the nation, so even to place is a huge accomplishment,” said Tim Kawahara. “The team’s success represents the caliber of students at UCLA Anderson and the strength of our real estate curriculum and programs.”

Applied Management Research

We pioneered practical learning with the applied management research program.

UCLA Anderson launched the first MBA field study program 54 years ago. The AMR program has worked with over 5,000 clients, including Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, microfinance institutions and startups. You’ll work with a team of peers on a two-quarter project that will solve an organization’s key business problem, while expanding your professional network and experience working in a new field, and inviting you to explore your career options. The AMR program takes place during fall and winter quarters of the second year.
