Research on the Optimization of Internship Pathways for Tourism and Business Majors Based on the School-Enterprise Cooperation Model

With the rapid development of the tourism and business industry, the school-enterprise cooperation model has been widely applied in higher education to enhance students' practical abilities and professional competencies. However, the existing internship model under this cooperation faces several challenges during its implementation, such as insufficient alignment between internship positions and students' majors, inappropriate scheduling of internship periods, lack of systematic management mechanisms, and unsatisfactory outcomes in improving students' practical skills. This paper analyzes the current school-enterprise cooperation internship model for tourism and business majors and explores strategies to optimize internship pathways, aiming to provide feasible suggestions for improving students' overall competence and employability.
