Additional Information

Master of Hospitality Management Studies Internship and Work Experience Opportunities

Students enrolled in programs within the International School of Hospitality, Sports, and Tourism Management (ISHSTM) at FDU-Vancouver have opportunities for internship and work experience through the School’s Preferred Industry Partnership (PIP) Program.

The PIP Program is a consortium of curated partnerships between ISHSTM @ FDUV and hospitality and tourism employers throughout British Columbia. The total number of employers in this program is limited to allow for an enhanced depth of the relationship between ISHSTM @ FDUV and each employer. Given the mission and scope of the hospitality and tourism programs at FDUV, this program allows for faculty, students, and employers to create robust personal experiences.

For students studying in the Master of Hospitality Management Studies (MHMS) program, an internship course (HRTM 7728) can be taken in the summer after a student has completed 12 graduate credits in the MHMS program (i.e. students must have completed at least two semesters prior to the summer internship term). This course is one-credit and provides a student with both work experience from an approved employer as well as professional development activities completed with their internship course instructor. These courses are optional and do not count toward the 30 required credits for the MHMS degree. They are an optional, value-added extra for students interested in a curated internship course experience. Minimum FDU GPA required: 3.35

The cost of internship courses to students is the one-credit course tuition. No additional fees apply within the PIP Program.
