Dropbox and instructions for Internship Period & Graduation Thesis (by Dr. Tam Anh Tran)

The 8-10 week "Internship Project" course provides students with valuable hands-on experience in a real-world setting within the hospitality, events, or leisure services industry. Through structured placements in relevant workplaces, students gain practical insights and apply theoretical knowledge learned in their academic program. Students are required to engage in frequent reporting with an assigned instructor, documenting their observations, challenges, and learning experiences. The culmination of this course is the development and submission of a graduation thesis, a research-oriented project based on observed practical problems encountered during the internship. This thesis will involve a comprehensive literature review, the formulation of research questions, the development of a conceptual model and hypotheses, and the outlining of a research methodology for academic findings. The thesis may take the form of pure academic research, applied research, or a company-oriented research and development project.
