Avantika Singh's Review On Institute Of Hotel Management, Catering And Nutrition - [IHM], Pusa, New Delhi

Asia’s number 1 institute for hotel management and has 100% placement results. Anyone interested to serve in any industry and wishes to be a manager one day can get admission here. I wished to join the hospitality industry as well as I wanted to start something of my own so this institute is the best place to learn all the skills required to be a manager or an entrepreneur.

The theoretical course as updated as it needs to be while the practical course gets along with the time and need. Everything is being taught starting from the classic manner to the modern traditions. Each and every faculty is highly learned and qualified for their jobs. Special mentions Chef Vipul Saxena - faculty of food productions (speciality Indian cuisine) Dr Shweta Mishra - faculty accommodation operations and management (double PhD in her field, experienced worker in hotels and also a great teacher) Ms Nimisha Seth- faculty Food and beverage operations (most creative faculty and has unique ideas for various events, also taught accommodation operations and a great person to talk with)

You get to intern with top hotels in your second year of the college for a duration of 4 months. You get stipend according to the hotel policies. Hotels come visit and do the interview part in the campus only and selects as per their requirement. One can also opt for vocational trainees anytime they want in the vacations for more practical approach and learning process.

Each and every 5 star hotel comes here for placements for each and every job like managers, supervisors, retails, HR, sales and marketing, etc.

Campus life is amazing but with some restrictions. But everyone will get used to it. Each and every function and festival is celebrated here with full enthusiasm and everything is being prepared and organised by the students and faculty only. Different theme lunches are also being organised in the campus.

Scholarship is for the people having any reservation category and whose annual income is less than 6 lacs. The fee is being given back to the student after completion of all the paperwork’s.

Honestly the infrastructure is a bit old but all the new techniques and technology items are being added time to time. It is getting renovated this time and all the hotel equipments are being added for updating the practical approach. Labs are well ventilated and equipped. Sports facilities like basketball, table tennis, badminton, volleyball, gym area is provided.

It is not very easy to avail the hostel as very less seats are available. The Delhi-NCR people are not provided with the hostel facilities. It is basically a triple sharing room with cupboards, beds, study table and chair. Also there is a flat facility in which 2 rooms are provided with an attached bathroom and washroom service. One big room accommodates 3-4 people and the small room is for 2 people. For boys hostel only the first years are provided this and for second and third years it is for NRI people. That is also triple sharing.
