A Journey to AIHM Chandigarh.

Placements: 99.30% of students was placed successfully last year, out of which 185 students got management trainee and the rest got good supervisor level and entry level job. The highest package was from the retail sector, Rs. 45,000/- and the lowest was from the hotel line, Rs. 15,000/- per month. Talking about top recruiters, they are OBEROI, TAJ, ACCOR, HILTON, etc. Top roles are HOT, HOMT, HDP, CLT, and MT.

Infrastructure: Computer labs and classes are fully air conditioned and the library is also good with the latest available resources. Quality of food is best as this college aims at providing good hospitality. I have also stayed in the hostel for three years; it's the best and developing day by day.

Faculty: Teachers always help the students and are always available 24/7 on phones. This course polishes the students from scratch to the best and trust me, this college will make you the best hotelier. Semester exams are easy; they're not hard, but you should have knowledge.

Other: I personally chose this course because I wanted to polish my career in hospitality. I think that my course is the best. Many events are there in which the college takes part, and students volunteer to come and join us.

The college placement record is goo.but only if you do hard work .

Placements: The placement record of the college is very good, and every hotel came for placement. The QSR and retail sectors also came for placement. It only depends on the students and how much they are prepared for the placement. Initially, each company offers 3 to 4 lacs per annum.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is good, and the labs are very good, but there is not a facility of Wi-Fi for students and also no AC for 1st and 2nd-year students. Also, no student is allowed lift access. The hostel is good; there is only a fan, no cooler, which is very hard in summer.

Faculty: College teachers are very good in teaching and have a good experience of teaching, but some of the teachers are not good; they do not behave equally with every student. Semester exams in the college are good; if the students pay attention in each class, they will not need to study in their rooms.

Other: If the students have an interest in the hotel industry, then only should they choose this course. After some time, they realize that the job is very long, requiring at least a 12-hour shift minimum.

The way of living here is all about "college with friends" .

Placements: Our college has approximately 250 students per semester, and top recruitment companies like Taj, Hyatt, JW Marriott, Oberoi-like companies, and quick-service restaurants provide jobs. The highest package of an M.Sc. is INR 5 lacs, a B.Sc. is INR 4 lacs, and a diploma is INR 2 lacs. 100% placement is provided by the college, which is why it is the best college for hotel management.

Infrastructure: Good infrastructure is provided by the college, such as AC available in every classroom, different labs for bakery, advanced food production kitchen classes, quantity food labs, an atithi restaurant for learning food and beverage skills, and a tuck shop called the canteen. And good quality of food and facilities available by the college, such as nutritious food in the mess and medical rooms.

Faculty: In the hotel management course, you learn about personality, qualities, teamwork, managerial skills, and exams. It's so easy for everyone; the percentage is around 40 out of 100 for passing in every semester, and curriculum activities such as mocktail competition and thali competition are related to the course activities that happen in college.

Other: I would like to share why I chose this course because, having learned and gained knowledge and skills in the food production department, the best thing about the entire course is that the lecturer is really motivated and teaches their students responsibility and shows them a way of life with interested departments in hotels.
