As a member of the first cohort of the Asian Institute of Hospitality Management in Academic Association with Les Roches, I’ve been able to benefit from a wealth of opportunities during my studies here. Soon after joining the institute, I participated in the PHIST conference, an initiative dedicated to sustainable tourism development hosted by the Phuket Hotel Association along with other industry partners.

AIHM champions the value of internships! They’re an opportunity to explore career tracks, to see how classroom learning intersects with real-world hotel operations and to form valuable industry connections while building experience. In fact, AIHM students in the BBA degree programme all benefit fromtwo separate semester-long internships during their studies.

Few careers in the world enable an amazing journey like a career in hospitality. Hospitality offers a platform for creating dream experiences, and its practitioners get to work in some of the most amazing settings in the world. So do AIHM’s interns.

From private islands and tropical resorts to stunning city hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants, AIHM’s hospitality management students are exploring their passions and developing their professional skills on their most recent internships.
