General situation of hotel management specialty in various countries

Switzerland: It has always been excellent and has never been surpassed.

In addition to Lausanne, where hotel management is the world's number one, Switzerland also has the largest hotel management education group SEG (five universities, SHMS, HIM, IHTTI, Cesar Ritz and CAA) and three hotel management universities under Lorette Group (Glion, Les Roches and LRG Gruyere), but they stopped in July 20 13 because they could not meet the government requirements. Swiss hotel management leads the world in reputation, environmental facilities, education quality and employment. However, Swiss hotel management schools have obvious advantages and disadvantages. In addition to the hotel management schools mentioned above, most of the other hotel management schools in Switzerland are small in scale and have a short time to establish, so students and parents need to consider them carefully.

America: business administration, anti-customer orientation.

Hotel management in America is a branch of business administration. Few comprehensive universities offer hotel management majors, and Cornell University is one of the few famous universities with hotel management majors. However, its graduates generally do not work in hotels, mainly because the curriculum is biased towards business administration. Generally speaking, students from Cornell University School of Hotel Management are rare in the hotel management industry. If they expect to have a wide alumni network in the hotel industry, Cornell University is good, but it may not be the most suitable.

France: Start late and become a monk halfway.

Hotel management education in France started very late, mainly because it saw the prosperity of hotel management in neighboring Switzerland, and France also wanted to take a share in this professional field. Some French public universities offer hotel management courses, but students need to learn French, and schools only provide French teaching. Private hotel management colleges in France charge more expensive tuition fees and offer courses taught in English. The French Hotel Management Institute needs to study for three years, about 200,000 RMB per year, and the graduate students need to study 1 year, about 250,000 RMB.

Britain: Joining hands with Lian Heng to enhance its strength.

Compared with the prestigious Switzerland, the reputation of the British hotel management major is slightly inferior. But even so, there are some universities in Britain that offer courses in hotel management. Due to the lack of practicality of the course content, some British hotel management colleges cooperate with Swiss schools to let students complete the part of combining theory with practice in Switzerland in the first year or two, and then the theoretical teaching in the last year is jointly conducted by Britain and Switzerland. Such schools include Derby University (in cooperation with Swiss SHMS University) and Manchester City University (in cooperation with Swiss Kaiser Ritz University).

Australia: The idea is good, but the heart is weak.

Hotel management is an extra major for non-immigrants in Australia. Hotel management major is a business subject with strong hands-on ability. In recent years, Australia has paid more attention to hotel management education. However, in a non-traditional hotel management education country, Australia really needs a long way to go to upgrade hotel management education to a higher level. The University of Queensland and Griffith University are pioneers. But as far as the current teaching results are concerned, the effect is still not satisfactory.

Singapore: connecting overseas, the dog's tail continues to mink.

You can basically find a job after graduation. Singapore, like Macao, is now vigorously developing gambling and tourism. At present, many schools in Singapore offer hotel tourism management majors. Hotel management in Singapore generally takes three years to study, which costs about 300,000-500,000 RMB. There is no IELTS limit. However, due to Singapore's loose school-running policy, many private hotel management schools only rent one or two floors of office buildings to run schools, and these schools are not qualified for degree granting. After completing the diploma course, students generally need to transfer to other countries to complete their studies. According to statistics, Switzerland has become the first choice for Singapore students to study abroad after completing their diplomas in hotel management.
