Anadolu University, School of Tourism and Hotel Management was established in 1993. After a one-year preparatory school, Anadolu University, School of Tourism and Hotel Management offers a Bachelor of Arts degree upon completion of an eight semester program. Students have the opportunity of studying in the laboratories and participate in various facilities of operations via highly widespread package programs; such as Fidelio, Amadeus and Galileo. A compulsory industrial training period of minimum 90 workdays is also a part of the study. As a principle, it is a great concern for the school that students should undergo the training period in 3-4-5 star hotels, 4-5 star holiday villages, tour operators and travel agencies.

While preparing the program, industrial needs are taken into consideration. Since the students are accepted as the candidate managers of the future, they both take the occupational courses of the school as well as courses similar in content to the ones in Faculty of Business Administration.

The school also offers programs leading to the Master of Arts and Philosophy of Doctorate degrees. Double major programs involving two departments within the university could be majored by the students who are allowed to according to their grades. Beside these degree programs, the school also houses the "e-Tourism Management" program for a Master's degree. Since 2003 EI-AH&LA American Hotel and Lodging Management Certificate Program is available for college level students to provide them with vocational scholastic abilities . The courses are carried in English.
