Singapore has been
selected to host the 2011 Asia Pacific Forum for Graduate Students’
Research in Tourism. Since its establishment in 2002, the Asia
Pacific Forum for Graduate Students’ Research in Tourism has
provided a stage for graduate students to present their findings and
have an opportunity for students to network. The conference has
successfully been held in Macao, Busan, Beijing, Hawaii, Bangkok,
Xiamen (China), Shah Alam (Malaysia), Seoul (Korea), and Beppu
(Japan) and UNLV Singapore is proud and honored to be the host for
2011.
The aim of this conference is to provide a "research
forum" among post-graduate students and faculty members engaged in
post-graduate teaching and research in hospitality and tourism
programs in the Asia Pacific region. The focus of the forum is to
facilitate the exchange of information through research and to
provide networking opportunities amongst forum participants to
foster collaborative research and academic exchange. This forum will
feature keynote presentations from academic and industry
leaders in tourism and hospitality, as well as refereed papers and
poster presentations from conference participants.
