The Internship program for BHM students at Gateway Institute of Professional Studies is crafted to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry practice. This program immerses students in the hospitality environment, allowing them to apply their theoretical knowledge in real-world settings. Throughout the internship, students will gain hands-on experience across various departments such as Front Office, Housekeeping, Food & Beverage Service, and Culinary Arts.

The internship not only focuses on developing technical skills but also on enhancing soft skills like teamwork, communication, and problem-solving, which are crucial in hospitality. Each student is paired with a mentor who provides guidance, ensuring that they maximize their learning and career development. At the conclusion of the internship, students are required to complete a final project or report, reflecting on their experience and demonstrating how they’ve applied their learning in a professional setting.
