With the rapid expansion of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) throughout almost
all aspects of tourism and hospitality industries, the task of integrating technology into higher
education curriculum is a need. This paper analyzes the relevance given by the various Portuguese
and Spanish institutions of higher education to ICT in their degrees. The analysis carried out was
done in degree courses operating in academic year 2018/2019, in Portuguese and Spanish universities
and polytechnics. A comparison was also made with the reality of 2012/2013.
