Its aim is to supply skilled staff for the travel, hospitality and leisure sectors, declaring a mission to "Turn into a higher education institution that prepares specialists who will be competitive in the international labour market and contribute to the sustainable development of society".
Roughly 2,000 students, including a small minority of part-timers, are divided between the faculties of tourism and hospitality, service management, and a business administration faculty which offers master's and doctoral courses. Teaching is provided in Azerbaijani, Russian and English.
The university has two campuses, both with ready access to Baku’s metro and other public transport systems. The main campus is on Koroglu Rahimov, close to Ganclik metro station, with an outpost on Jafar Kharandov, near to Azadlig station.
