INDUSTRY INTERFACE
Experiential Learning
Hotel Management is an art which can not be taught only in the
classrooms. For getting real benefit from the Management, it is
necessary to have some exposure to the “field”. Since several
students of Hotel Management come without any work
experience, it is necessary to build a component which
provides them such exposure.
Experiential Learning (EL) is one of the concepts of the
undergraduate Program. It is similar to “learning from the field”.
In the process, students get a feel of organizational reality: what
it is, how it works, and the relationship between diverse
functions. Students are able to relate classroom teaching to
organizational life.
Industry Exposure
The objective is to provide students early real life exposure of
organizations and to enrich the learning experience. Through
simulations of inputs from theory and practice. During the first
year, the students are taken on guided tour to organizations of
different types in the locality: Restaurants, Hostels, and Resorts
etc. These visits give them an exposure to the complexity of
management.
International Focus
Globalization of business is one of the most important areas of
change in management today. In this scenario, managers,
irrespective of whether they are working in India or abroad,
cannot do without adequate understanding of international
business.
SIHM emphasizes on international aspects of management in
all the relevant courses of the curriculum right from the first
year. The three year curriculum is compulsory, irrespective of
the international dimensions of different functions, while the
fourth year would offer an intensive package on international
hotel Operation System, covering courses, such as
Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurial Skills.
Summer Training
Each student would work with an organization, on a project for
a period of a minimum 8-12 weeks at the end of first year. The
objectives are to allow students, intense day-to-day interaction
with organizations. Summer Training would provide exposure
to the student to working of an organization in the real life
setting. It would also help students to develop managerial skills
and competencies and facilities an informed career choice by
the students.
