Individuals who are trained at university level are
expected to work in appropriate jobs for their education. In this direction, a
research has been carried out to determine the mediating role of academic
procrastination behaviours under the influence of tourism education students'
career intentions in tourism. In the descriptive study, the data were compiled
with a questionnaire based on the literature. The universe of the research
consists of undergraduate and graduate students in Turkey. The target
population of the research consists of the students who reregister in the fall
semester of 2016-2017 academic year for the Tourism Management program of the
Faculty of Tourism and Tourism and Hotel Management program for the Vocational
School of Tourism of the two public universities. The questionnaire was applied
face-to-face between November 23, December 5, 2016, using the convenience
sampling technique. The data of 462 questionnaires were subjected to factor
analysis and stepwise regression analysis as well as descriptive statistics. It
was determined that 9.3% of the planning and diligence can explain career
intention in tourism. In addition, it was found that diligence was a partial
mediator. The study concludes with the suggestion that students who want to
pursue a career in tourism sector should achieve this not only with their
planning but also with their diligence.
