At the International College of Management, Sydney (ICMS), we value real-world experiences as an integral part of our educational approach.
Our ‘Excursions and Field Trips’ initiatives are designed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and practical application, offering our students unique opportunities to explore, learn, and gain valuable behind-the-scenes insights.
The ICMS Professional Development Lab (PD Lab), together with staff and faculty, work with industry to bring business operations to life for students. By partnering with us for student excursions, organisations can provide enriching experiences outside the classroom, fostering practical learning and professional development in a real-world context.
Bachelor of Business (Fashion and Global Brand Management) students at ICMS experienced a unique excursion to David Jones’ flagship store in Sydney’s CBD. This visit, part of their Introduction to the Fashion and Retail Industry subject, featured an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour and a detailed Q&A session with the David Jones team.
Students left feeling inspired, valuing the real-world exposure to the fashion and retail industry.
Bachelor of Event Management students enjoyed an enlightening excursion to two premier venues, Cruise Bar and Four Seasons Hotel. The generous hospitality and insightful sharing of industry knowledge from these establishments provided an invaluable learning experience for the next generation of event professionals.
This opportunity allowed students to gain firsthand understanding of the operational intricacies and professional standards that define success in the hospitality and events sector.
Bachelor of Business (Sports Management) students attended the Allianz Stadium to get a behind-the-scenes look at how to incorporate sustainability into operations.
The visit, organised by their lecturer, gave the students an insight into how today’s big stadiums are leading the charge in sustainability through initiatives championing a greener future.
Bachelor of Property (Development, Investment and Valuation) had the opportunity to engage with the Green Building Council Australia where they go a behind-the-scenes look at facilities management and operations, including the waste compactors and the rooftop solar panels.
This visit proved valuable later when the students were able to incorporate some of the ideas and learnings into their assessments.
