IMI UNIVERSITY CENTRE IS DIFFERENT
There are many good educational institutes around, why then IMI and how do we think we are different?
FAST TO THE TOP
IMI's intensive curriculum as well as its partnership with MMU allows IMI students a cost effective way to start their professional careers. Straight from High School to the BA in hospitality in 3 years including a 6 months paid in-training placement. Moreover, through our Alumnus Career Centre, as well as our extensive Alumni network and Industry connections IMI is able to support students to find suitable positions after graduation
ENGLISH PRIOR TO YOUR STUDIES
IMI recognizes that English skills are essential for a successful learning experience at IMI. Therefore we have created an extremely cost effective English learning programme prior to hospitality studies.
EDUCATIONAL PARTNER IN THE UK
Strong fifteen year partnership with the Manchester Metropolitan University in the UK (MMU). All of IMI's undergraduate programmes are validated by MMU, ensuring that the highest quality assurance standards are maintained. IMI is the first and only Hotel Management Institute in Switzerland with all stage awards (Foundation, Certificate and Diploma in Higher Education) and the final BA (Hons) are dual awards by both MMU and IMI
MORE THAN JUST TECHNIQUES
A Personal development programme embedded in the course curriculum strengthens employment prospects for our alumni and brings them NOT only technically to the highest niveau but prepares them well for stress, cultural issues and professional challenges in an ever changing global economy
DIRECT RECRUITMENT ON CAMPUS
Many international companies recruit directly on campus during our IMI Career Fair and each term IMI organizes an Industry Advisory Board where top professionals from industry come to IMI to share their views and answer questions from students
CAREER SUPPORT
Employment prospects for our alumni, Career driven support and High salaries for graduates is high on the agenda of IMI University Centre. Many innovative workshops, guest speakers and our Alumni Database available online support this endeavour. IMI graduates are in high demand in an international job market in management positions. Many of our graduates who have already achieved senior management positions are ready to hire new graduates from IMI
TOP GUEST LECTURERS
International faculty & guest professors, many of them award winning like Dr Mark Esposito from Grenoble Graduate School (F) and Prof Lloyd Williams (voted outstanding Professor 2007 from the U21 Global University in Singapore and Outstanding Online Educator 2007 from U21 Global University.) visit our campus regularly
CLOSE TO TH CITY AND STILL AT THE LAKE AND WITHIN REACH OF MOUNTAINS
Different from most other Swiss Hotel Management Schools; the IMI Campus is only 12 minutes from the centre of picturesque Luzern. Our students can enjoy a typical Swiss landscape with mountains and a beautiful lake yet still have the comfort of a cosmopolitan city close by
The city of Luzern, is already a world tourist hub, and has some of the worlds' best restaurants and hotels. 80% of all hotels in Switzerland are in the German speaking part. This benefits our students needs for placements, training and fieldtrips.
MEMBER OF LUZERN-TOURISM
IMI is the only Swiss Hotel School to be an active Member of Luzern Tourism and therefore has many professional links and connections
In 2009, Luzern will host the first Global Tourism Forum and IMI will be an executive partner during this event
HIGH TECH
Innovative Internet technologies support a student centred learning, web-enhanced tuition and extended usage of multi- media. From the moment of arrival you can use the Internet to get in touch with your families and friends
THEMED TERMS
IMI focuses on a special theme every term, in 08 the theme was Creativity & Innovation. As for 2009, we would like to focus on Socially Responsible Leadership and to achieve this we intend to turn the whole school in a socially responsible direction and aim for the global accreditation of PRIME (Principle for Responsible Management Education) supported by the United Nations
EDUTAINMENT
IMI supports and sponsors many leisure activities. We know that our students need an active social life as well as extra-curricular activities and pastoral care. IMI puts a great deal of energy into ensuring all aspects of education are considered. IMI is just a good place to be!
