A dream internship in America
Elena took advantage of a sandwich year as part of her degree. She spent a year in America, completing management training in Florida and New York.
Tourism & Hospitality is a very global course. The small class sizes at CU Coventry help her learn about business practices from different cultures.
The structured timetable helps Elena fit her studies around her work and life. For example, she enjoys the Volunteering and Cultural societies at the Student Union.
She is also a Duty Manager at Hilton Hotels. It is satisfying to put her course into practice and develop her career.
I just want to highlight the fact that these four years were absolutely great. My sandwich year abroad was an unforgettable experience.
We learn in a modern way, with tests, presentations and coursework rather than end of year exams. It means we have so much more support.
