Top 10 Hotel Management Schools
03 May 2011
Three of the top five ranking international hospitality management schools are in Switzerland, according to a new survey by market research and information group Taylor Nelson Sofres.
Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne, Glion Institute of Higher Education and Les Roches International School of Hotel Management all featured in the top five listing of the survey, which surveyed hiring managers from five-star international hospitality companies from around the world.
“Switzerland continues to lead the world in providing the highest-quality international hospitality management education,” said David Graves, CEO Laureate Hospitality Art & Design Education. “The results of this survey, like those of a similar survey in 2007, affirm that hiring managers at the very best hotels consider Swiss hospitality education to be the best in the world.”
“The goal of top international hospitality management schools is to prepare managers to compete successfully in a rapidly changing world,” added Arie van der Spek, Senior Vice President of Laureate Hospitality Education worldwide.
The survey was conducted in September and October 2010, and included invitations to more than 50,000 hoteliers in 70 countries.
