Which course is the best in DICE School of Hospitality and Culinary Arts?

Hi.

Yes, internships are indeed part of the curriculum at Dnyaan Prasad Global University (DPGU) School of Hospitality & Tourism (SHT) as part of its hospitality and tourism programs.

1. Internships Are Mandatory

Students and other sources confirm that internships are a required component of the programme and form part of the structured learning experience. This means students will undergo industry internships during their course of study rather than it being optional. 

 The curriculum and student feedback note that the school emphasizes industry‑driven learning, and specifically includes industry projects, internships, industry visits, guest lectures, and workshops as a part of the training approach.

2. Industry Integration and Skill‑Building

DPGU's hospitality school aims to align academic learning with real‑world hospitality practices:

 Internships help students apply classroom concepts in hotels, resorts, travel/tourism firms, and allied hospitality settings. 
 The school focuses on industry readiness and experiential learning, which includes internships as part of professional skill development. 

Additionally, DPGU has MoUs with industry partners (e.g., DoubleTree by Hilton) aimed at enhancing internship and industrial training opportunities, alongside guest lectures and workshops — showing a structured collaboration with hospitality employers.

DPGU SHT faculty include professionals with hospitality/tourism academic credentials and industry focus

• The institute description highlights that they have “experienced and competent faculty with varied industrial exposure in international and national chains of hospitality organizations.” 

• This usually means that many faculty members either have prior industry work experience or are qualified to teach practical and industry‑oriented subjects.

Industry Exposure Versus Pure Academics

• In many hospitality schools (including DPGU's SHT), faculty backgrounds are a mix of:

  • Industry practitioners (chefs, hotel operations managers, tourism professionals)

  • Academics with industry exposure (those who may teach subjects like hotel operations, front office, marketing, etc.)

  • Researchers and experienced educators focusing on theory and applied hospitality management

Hi.

Yes, Dnyaan Prasad Global University (DPGU)'s School of Hospitality & Tourism (SHT) does offer opportunities for interdisciplinary and elective study as part of its curriculum, especially in the BBA (Hospitality)‑Honours / Honours with Research program:

1. Elective & Multi‑Disciplinary Framework

 The hospitality programme explicitly includes choice‑based credits and elective options that allow students to study subjects beyond core hospitality topics.
The BBA (Hospitality) programme description notes provisions for a multi‑disciplinary approach and specialisation electives in areas such as Culinary Arts, Mixology, Cruise Ship Operations, Facilities Management, and Travel & Tourism — giving students flexibility to explore allied areas of hospitality and tourism management as part of their degree. 

2. What This Means

Interdisciplinary / Elective Components

• The curriculum structure *explicitly mentions a multi‑disciplinary approach and the availability of elective/specialization courses in hospitality‑related fields. 

This means students can choose courses outside the core subjects — for example:

• Culinary Arts

• Mixology

• Cruise Line Operations

• Facilities Management

• Travel & Tourism
  These electives allow learners to tailor their education toward interests within (and related to) hospitality and tourism. 

3. Interdisciplinarity Encouraged

Although the official SHT curriculum page doesn't list generic electives from completely different schools (like psychology, business, design, etc.), the multi‑disciplinary wording and elective options indicate that students are not limited to strictly traditional hotel management coursework. This is consistent with modern university curricula that support cross‑disciplinary learning within related fields.
