The new institute will help students enhance their knowledge, professional skills and foreign language proficiency so that they can become more dynamic and confident to integrate into the increasingly globalised world.

The Institute will apply a high-quality training programme transferred from the Pennsylvania State University (PSU), which is one of the 5 biggest public universities of the U.S.A and placed third in world rankings for tourism education.

In addition, the Institute will implement global undergraduate exchange programmes under which students are facilitated to study in South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Malaysia.

In addition, students will be offered the chance to join in the Passage to ASEAN (P2A) campaign and Hospitality & Tourism internship programme of the Southeast Asia Ministers of Education Organisation (SEAMEO) launched by this university in order to seek job opportunities in Southeast Asian countries after graduation.
