Each student will find or will choose or will be provided with an internship site. The site chosen will be based on; an interview conducted by the management of the internship site, the student's preference of location based on those available. The Coordinator of Hospitality Management will have the final decision on all internship site placements. The Coordinator's decision will be based on his interaction with the student during previous course work and his understanding of the student and the internship properties requirements. Every consideration will be given to the student's personal preferences with regard to location and types of property. However, the student's preferences will not be the only consideration for placement.
This graduate course approaches Information Technology from the perspective of information consumers as opposed to technology implementers. During this course, students will examine various technologies and their application within modern organizations. The course has two primary goals. (1) The course will explain information technologies in non-technical terms so that students can evaluate a technology’s effectiveness relative to any existing alternatives and the overall organizational needs. (2) This course should increase student awareness regarding how they interact with technology in a personal or business setting. Business leaders are constantly bombarded with technology. This course addresses the need to sift through that information in an intelligent manner and make smart business decisions.
