TOP-UP degree

- BBA in Hospitality Entrepreneurship
The Top-up degree option with Middlesex University London (MDXU) allows students to complete their initial degree at STIU, then continue with an additional year of study at MDXU.
Internships
At STIU, we believe experience is the foundation of success, which is why HOS students now complete one (1) intensive internship totaling an average of 800 hours during their final term. This concentrated experience allows students to specialize in their preferred career path by selecting from either Food & Beverage or Rooms Division. Students benefit from our network of exclusive, long-term hotel partners—trusted collaborators who have worked with us for over 10 years and deeply understand the STIU mission and the quality of our students. Internship arrangements, whether paid or unpaid, are subject to the student’s country of origin and local labor regulations. To ensure professional readiness before entering the field, students train in our state-of-the-art culinary and F&B facilities, as well as our modern labs for Front Office and Rooms Division.
