In its continuing efforts to implement innovative, high-quality teaching methods, the DTU Hospitality and Tourism Faculty held a training course in June based on curricula shared with Penn State, one of the five largest public universities in America. George Ruth and Jeff Heim, Penn State lecturers, shared their experiences with their DTU counterparts.

Mr. Ruth and Mr. Heim also visited working areas of the DTU Hospitality Faculty, such as the kitchen, reception area and rooms. They made suggestions to the DTU lecturers on ways to improve professional training in Hospitality and Tourism at DTU.
DTU Hospitality and Tourism lecturers also visited the Intercontinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort and the Laguna Lang Co Resort in Thua Thien – Hue province, where they learnt about how unique forms of architecture can harmoniously blend ancient and modern styles.
