Furthermore, the university\u2019s strong emphasis on social innovation and sustainability aligns perfectly with my goal of contributing positively to society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical Insights and Self-Discipline Through a Tourism Industry Internship<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During my Experiential and Practical Program (EPP), I participated in a one-month online internship with EXest Inc. via the WOW U platform, focusing on tourism-related research and connecting tour guides with travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working remotely required strong self-discipline and time management. I independently organized my schedule, conducted in-depth research, analyzed data, and presented my findings and opinions directly to my supervisor using structured presentation slides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This hands-on experience greatly boosted my confidence in expressing ideas and gave me valuable insights into global business practices, effective communication, and the mechanics of the tourism industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
