This study presents a bibliometric analysis of educational technology research in the context of Tourism and Hospitality Education (T&HE). Drawing on 163 documents published between 2001 and 2025, the analysis reveals a growing body of literature shaped by international collaboration and conceptual diversity. The study identifies key contributing countries, with China, the United States, and Australia leading in publication output, while Australia shows the highest citation impact. Using co-occurrence network analysis six thematic clusters were identified: (1) technology integration and learning outcomes, (2) online and distance education, (3) AI and digital literacies, (4) immersive and experiential learning, (5) pandemic-related platform use, and (6) evaluation and niche applications. These themes reflect both established practices and emerging trends, highlighting the field’s interdisciplinary and evolving nature. The findings offer insights into how educational technologies are conceptualized and applied within T&HE and suggest directions for future research, including deeper exploration of underrepresented contexts, AI-driven pedagogy, and longitudinal impact studies. This study contributes a structured overview to guide scholars, educators, and policymakers in shaping a more inclusive and innovative research agenda in educational technology for tourism and hospitality.
