    INDUSTRIAL TRAINING SCHEME (BHM208) (17 Weeks)
    01
    Exposure to Industrial Training is an integral part of the 2nd year curriculum. The class would be divided into two groups or as the case may be. The 17 weeks industrial training would be divided into four/five weeks each in the four key areas of Food Production, Food & Beverage Service, Accommodation Operations & Front Office Operations.
    02
    Attendance in the 2nd year would be calculated separately for the two components of in-institute training and industrial training as per NCHMCT rules. Industrial Training will require an input of 102 working days i.e. (17 weeks x 06 days = 102 days). A student can avail leave to a maximum of 15% (15 days) only with prior permission of the hotel authorities. Similarly, the institute Principal can condone an additional 10% (10 days) on production of a medical certificate.
    03
    For award of marks, 20% marks of IT would be on the basis of feed-back from the industry in a prescribed Performance Appraisal Form (PAF). It will be the students responsibility to get this feed-back/assessment form completed from all the four departments of the hotel for submission to the institute at the end of Industrial Training. For the remaining 80% marks, students would be assessed on the basis of seminar/presentation before a select panel. The presentation would be limited to only one key area of the student's interest. A hard copy of the report will also have to be submitted to the panel.
    04
     Responsibilities of institute, hotel and the student/trainee with aims & objectives have been prescribed for adherence.
    05
    Once the student has been selected / deputed for Industrial Training by the institute, he/she shall not be permitted to undergo IT elsewhere. In case students make direct arrangements with the hotel for Industrial Training, these will necessarily have to be approved by the institute. Students selected through campus interviews will not seek Industrial Training on their own.
    06
    There will be no inter change of candidates from one batch to another i.e. winter batch to summer batch and vice versa.

    INDUSTRIAL TRAINING
    Objective of industrial training is to provide to students the feel of the actual working environment and to gain practical knowledge and skills, which in turn will motivate, develop and build their confidence. Industrial training is also expected to provide the students the basis to identify their key operational area of interest.
    01
    RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRAINEE
    • should be punctual.
    • should maintain the training logbook up-to-date.
    • should be attentive and careful while doing work.
    • should be keen to learn and maintain high standards and quality of work.
    • should interact positively with the hotel staff.
    • should be honest and loyal to the hotel and towards their training.
    • should get their appraisals signed regularly from the HODs or trainingmanager.
    • gain maximum from the exposure given, to get maximum practical knowledge and skills.
    • should attend the training review sessions / classes regularly.
    • should be prepared for the arduous working condition and should face them positively.
    • should adhere to the prescribed training schedule.
    • should take the initiative to do the work as training is the only time where you can get maximum exposure.
    • should, on completion of Industrial Training, handover all the reports, appraisals, logbook and completion certificate to the institute.
    02
    RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE INSTITUTE
    • should give proper briefing to students prior to the industrial training
    • should make the students aware of the industry environment and expectations.
    • should notify the details of training schedule to all the students.
    • should coordinate regularly with the hotel especially with the training manager.
    • should visit the hotel, wherever possible, to check on the trainees .
    • should sort out any problem between the trainees and the hotel.
    • should take proper feedback from the students after the training.
    • should brief the students about the appraisals , attendance, marks, logbook and training report.
    • should ensure that change of I.T. hotel is not permitted once the student has been interviewed, selected and has accepted the offer.
    • should ensure that change of I.T. batch is not permitted.
    • should ensure trainees procure training completion certificate from the hotel before joining institute.
    03
    RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE HOTEL
    First exposure: A young trainee's first industry exposure is likely to be the most influential in that person's career. If the managers / supervisors are unable or unwilling to develop the skills young trainees need to perform effectively, the latter will set lower standards than they are capable of achieving, their self-images will be impaired, and they will develop negative attitudes towards training, industry, and - in all probability - their own careers in the industry. Since the chances of building successful careers in the industry will decline, the trainees will leave in hope of finding other opportunities. If on the other hand, first managers/supervisors help trainees achieve maximum potential, they will build the foundations for a successful career.
    Hotels:
    • should give proper briefing session/orientation/induction prior to commencement of training.
    • should make a standardized training module for all trainees.
    • should strictly follow the structured training schedule.
    • should ensure cordial working conditions for the trainee.
    • should co-ordinate with the institute regarding training programme.
    • should be strict with the trainees regarding attendance during training.
    • should check with trainees regarding appraisals, training report, log book etc.
    • should inform the institute about truant trainees.
    • should allow the students to interact with the guest.
    • should specify industrial training's "Dos and Don'ts" for the trainee.
    • should ensure issue of completion certificate to trainees on the last day of training.

    SECOND YEAR - INDUSTRIAL TRAINING SCHEME (BHM208) (17 Weeks)


    1) Exposure to Industrial Training is an integral part of the 2nd year curriculum. The class would be divided into two groups or as the case may be. The 17 weeks industrial training would be divided into four/five weeks each in the four key areas of Food Production, Food & Beverage Service, Accommodation Operations & Front Office Operations.
    2) Attendance in the 2nd year would be calculated separately for the two components of in-institute training and industrial training as per NCHMCT rules. Industrial Training will require an input of 102 working days i.e. (17 weeks x 06 days = 102 days). A student can avail leave to a maximum of 15% (15 days) only with prior permission of the hotel authorities. Similarly, the institute Principal can condone an additional 10% (10 days) on production of a medical certificate.
    3) For award of marks, 20% marks of IT would be on the basis of feed-back from the industry in a prescribed Performance Appraisal Form (PAF). It will be the students' responsibility to get this feed-back/assessment form completed from all the four departments of the hotel for submission to the institute at the end of Industrial Training. For the remaining 80% marks, students would be assessed on the basis of seminar/presentation before a select panel. The presentation would be limited to only one key area of the student's interest. A hard copy of the report will also have to be submitted to the panel.
    4) Responsibilities of institute, hotel and the student/trainee with aims & objectives have been prescribed for adherence.
    5) Once the student has been selected / deputed for Industrial Training by the institute, he/she shall not be permitted to undergo IT elsewhere. In case students make direct arrangements with the hotel for Industrial Training, these will necessarily have to be approved by the institute. Students selected through campus interviews will not seek Industrial Training on their own.
    6) There will be no inter change of candidates from one batch to another i.e. winter batch to summer batch and vice versa.

    RESEARCH PROJECT (BHM309)
    HOURS ALLOTED 15
    The objective of research is to seek answers to problems through application of scientific methodology which guarantees that information collected is reliable and unbiased. This information is utilised to make conclusions and recommend solutions. The elements that are to be kept in mind while undertaking research is deciding a relevant topic, feasibility, coverage, accuracy and research, objectivity and ethics.

    In the SEM V, students will work closely with their supervisor and develop mutually working relationship to initiate the research which would involve preparing an outline and preliminary collection of data. The supervisor will guide the student in framing and planning the research project and the methodology to be adopted in collection of data, through interviews, telephones, mailers etc. while the student on their part will expose themselves to research of the topic through meetings, interviews, internet search, library etc. The student should generally produce all material in word processed or typed format so that the presentation is neat and legible. Student must inform their supervisor or other people with whom their work is being discussed. The research should be planned to minimise time wastage and a clear time scale should be put in place. The research should really spell out the objective, its findings, the methodology adopted, its conclusions and recommendations. The student and supervisor will work together to prepare synopsis of the research.

    One hour per week has been allocated for the purpose and students alongwith the supervisor must regularly interact during this period. The final preparation and presentation would be done during SEM VI before a panel of internal and external examiners through a report and viva voce.

    COVERAGE OF SPECIAL TOPICS
    USING EXTERNAL GUEST AND EXPERT SPEAKERS
    HOURS ALLOTED: 30
    As per teaching scheme, two hours per week have been allocated for External Guests as Expert Speakers to create a good academic interface with the industry. This is an important activity to complement our existing faculty through inviting renowned industry experts to address specialised disciplines and investigate emerging business trends, techniques and innovative case-studies.

    GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTERNAL EXPERT SPEAKERS

  • Before inviting the Speaker, make sure that they really are experts in the relevant subject.
  • Invite, if possible, Speakers who are not only experts in subjects but are also capable speakers.
  • If, although they are eminently suitable because of their expertise, they have poor presentation skills, offer them support.
  • Inform them in writing, and in clear unambiguous terms, of the aims and objectives of the session.
  • Discuss with them, then confirm in writing, specifically what you want them to cover: exactly how long they have to speak: and what questioning techniques will be employed - during and after the session.
  • Give them full information, in writing, about the starting time, the location, and the size and level of the participants.
  • Confirm whether they will use aids and, if so, of what type(s) and how many. Do they already have them, are they of acceptable quality: do they want any help in procuring them: do they want to use aids available with you.
  • Confirm whether they intend to use hand-outs: do they have them available: do they want any support in their production: when do they intent to use them.
  • Seek and confirm their views on the room layout - what type they would prefer or whether they have to accept the existing room layout.
  • Arrange a feed-back session with the participants - as you may want to use them again.

  • Maintain a record of the date, duration of the session and contact details of the Guest Speakers for future references which may be required by your institute and the NCHMCT.

    BHM309 - RESEARCH PROJECT (PRACTICAL)
    Hours Alloted : 60                                                           Maximum Marks : 100
    Once you have finalised the first draft or synopsis in consultation with your supervisor during SEM-V, plan to writing the final research paper during SEM-VI. Keep in mind the following:
    1. Statement of purpose: tell the reader what you're going to say.
    2. Main body of the paper: say it
    3.  Summary and conclusion: tell the reader what you've said.
    4. Stick to the point, avoid digression. State each major idea quickly and then develop it through examples and explanations.
    5. Include concrete examples, illustrations, and factual details to back up your generalizations.
    6. Criticize, evaluate, illustrate, attack, or defend where appropriate to your topic. Show you've been thinking.
    7. As you write, indicate your information source (by # of card or author's name) in the margin beside ideas. You can return later to complete the documenting of your references.
    8. Unless your professor has specified otherwise, be sure to introduce quotations and show how they fit in with your position. Don't use them as filler.
    9. Read it out loud to check for flow and awkward language. Read for clarity and logical progression and smooth transitions.
    10. Find alternate words for ones you are using too often (check a Thesaurus).
    11. Check for mechanical errors such as misspelled words, inaccurate punctuation, incorrect grammar, etc.
    12. Watch carefully to prevent plagiarism. Be absolutely certain that your documentation gives full credit for all materials used not only in quotations but in paraphrased form.
    13. Revise and polish your tentative draft for final project
    14. Type the final version of your report. Double space and allow for proper margins
    15. Follow the exact format prescribed by your instructor for the title page, bibliography and documentation. This may vary from topic to topic, so be sure to check if you're in doubt.
    16.  Double check your documentation against your alphabetized bibliography. Make certain that all of your documentation is accurately tied to the references listed in your bibliography.
    17. After typing, be sure to proofread for typos and other errors.
    18. Hand your paper in!!
     
    Remember all research is expected to show originality as it provides significant contribution to enhancing knowledge. Do give reference of ideas, quotes etc. in your paper from wherever it has been borrowed. The research paper must be accompanied by a certificate to the affect that it is an original piece of work. If at any stage it is found that the research paper has been copied, in part or full, it is likely to be cancelled and the student failed in the subject.

    COVERAGE OF SPECIAL TOPICS
    USING EXTERNAL GUEST AND EXPERT SPEAKERS

    Hours Alloted : 60
    As per teaching scheme, two hours per week have been allocated for External Guests as Expert Speakers to create a good academic interface with the industry. This is an important activity to complement our existing faculty through inviting renowned industry experts to address specialised disciplines and investigate emerging business trends, techniques and innovative case - studies.
    GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTERNAL EXPERT SPEAKERS
    1. Before inviting the Speaker, make sure that they really are experts in the relevant subject.
    2. Invite, if possible, Speakers who are not only experts in subjects but are also capable speakers.
    3.
     If, although they are eminently suitable because of their expertise, they have poor presentation skills, offer them support.
    4.
    Inform them in writing, and in clear unambiguous terms, of the aims and objectives of the session.
    5.
    Discuss with them, then confirm in writing, specifically what you want them to cover: exactly how long they have to speak: and what questioning techniques will be employed - during and after the session.
    6.
     Give them full information, in writing, about the starting time, the location, and the size and level of the participants.
    7.
    Confirm whether they will use aids and, if so, of what type(s) and how many. Do they already have them, are they of acceptable quality: do they want any help in procuring them: do they want to use aids available with you.
    8.
    Confirm whether they intend to use hand-outs: do they have them available: do they want any support in their production: when do they intent to use them.
    9.
    Seek and confirm their views on the room layout - what type they would prefer or whether they have to accept the existing room layout.
    10. Arrange a feed-back session with the participants - as you may want to use them again.
    Maintain a record of the date, duration of the session and contact details of the Guest Speakers for future references which may be required by your institute and the NCHMCT.
