Academic Programs – Specializations



The academic programs of TRINITY conform to the academic system used in all academic institutions of higher learning throughout the United States. The academic year consists of Fall and Spring Semesters and a Summer Session. Known for its unique flexibility, the American system has several distinct features: It is based on a credit earning process rather than years of study.



It is designed to meet the needs, aspirations and abilities of students at different stages of their studying and professional life. It allows students to keep their own pace of study. It provides a broader and more varied education than many other systems by offering three kinds of courses which must be completed successfully, before graduation:



  1. General Education Requirements: These are courses which require students to distribute their attention across a fairly wide range of disciplines, designed to expand horizons and sharpen intellectual skills. These courses are required of all students regardless of their field of specialization.



  2. Field (Core) Requirements: These requirements consist of those courses which provide specific instruction and practical training in the area of a student’s specialization and are required of all students specializing in that field.



  3. Elective Courses: These are courses that students can take from any field of specialization (other than their own) that interests them and are designed to bridge and link a student’s specialization field with neighboring fields.


The courses of the full program of study are numbered as follows depending on their level of complexity and the intellectual skills they require:



100 level courses that can be taken by ALL students.



200 level courses are offered to those students who have completed at least 30 credits of coursework.



300 level courses are offered to those students who have completed at least 60 credits of coursework, and finally



400 level courses are offered to students who have completed 90 credits of coursework.

So, students can be either full-time or part-time, step into or walk out of the program at any time, transfer credits from other educational institutions under certain conditions and, in effect, determine the time of program completion and graduation.



One course or a full year’s program: The system enables students to tailor their program of studies according to time availability and financial resources.



The student can choose a live-in full time program* or opt to take:


  • only one course per semester resulting in 3 credits per semester or 6 credits per year
  • two courses per semester resulting in 6 credits per semester or 12 credits per year

  • three courses per semester with corresponding credits and so on

This is especially suitable to individuals who are employed in the hospitality industry and wish to enrich their academic profile.

As a general guideline, for the acquisition of a


  • Certificate, about 30 credits are required

  • Diploma, about 60 credits are required while for a

  • Bachelor’s Degree equivalent, 120 to 125 credits are required depending on the field of specialization.

  • Full time resident students may also earn from 3 to 6 academic credits during their summer practical training


TRINITY offers specialization in the fields of:


  • Hospitality & Tourism Management

  • Food & Beverage Management

  • Culinary Hospitality Management
