TIM INTERNSHIP PROGRAM<br />

At the TIM School, we are committed to help prepare you for your future and<br />

we strive to provide you with opportunities that will not only challenge you in<br />

the classroom but through your <strong>internships</strong> as well.<br />

The goal of our internship program is to give you the hands-on, front-line, and<br />

management experience that will allow you to use what you learn in the classroom<br />

in the "laboratory of the real world". A step-by-step guide for completing<br />

the internship requirements are listed below.<br />

TIM 100<br />

All TIM majors are required to first enroll in TIM 100 which meets, in a classroom<br />

setting, twice a week. This class provides you with the tools that will help<br />

you to select and obtain an internship (resume and cover letter writing, interview<br />

attire, interviewing skills, business etiquette, etc.) and ul<strong>tim</strong>ately, a career<br />

opportunity that is right for you. Through individual research projects, group<br />

discussions, and guest speakers, you will learn about the various segments of<br />

the travel industry, specific company operations, and the array of duties and<br />

responsibilities that comes with management positions.<br />

TIM 200<br />

The focus of this course is a written report describing the student’s 400-hour<br />

work experience and the comparison of theories learned in class and practiced<br />

in the field. The internship provider offers guidance through a midpoint<br />

and final evaluation. Your paper will reflect these results, as well as a discussion<br />

on your ability to meet goals set forth at the beginning of your internship.<br />

In writing the report, the fundamentals of professional business writing are<br />

stressed.<br />

TIM 300 or TIM 400<br />

At this level of internship, you are now ready to work at a higher level position;<br />

one with more responsibility. The options to complete this internship level are:<br />

TIM 300, the regular advance internship; TIM 400, the Executive Internship; or<br />

the Community Service Internship.<br />

For questions about our internship program please contact Kim Brooks, Internship<br />

& Career Placement Coordinator, at 808.956.4885 or brookski@hawaii.edu.<br />
