Other: I had interest in kitchen so I wanted to become a chef. That's why I joined IHMA. The degree is already extended one more year. That's a great part. Theme lunches are there every 2 months, food festivals, nearby 1000 students in whole campus, etc. You'll get everything you need on campus. The major market held there in Bhaijipura is a scholarship for SC/ST students.

I am satisfied with the college because of the faculty and amazing memories of those 3 years. 
Placements: Our college offers a huge number of career opportunities to students. In 2019, the average campus placement percentage was around 94%. Top recruiters that came to our college include The Oberoi Group, Hyatt, ITC, JW Marriott, The Fern, IHG, Accor, Madhuban Resorts, Express Hotels, McDonald's, Faasos, Reliance, Arvind, and others. The highest salary package that was offered to us was Rs. 30,000 per month. The lowest salary package was Rs. 13,000 per month and the average salary package was Rs. 16,525 per month. Usually, food retailers and non-food retailers offer better salaries compared to hotels. But it completely depends on your preference for your career, so one must choose it wisely.
Infrastructure: The college has a large infrastructure, including a well-equipped kitchen, a bakery, and a restaurant. The library is well stocked with books and research materials. The auditorium, basketball court, conference room, and computer labs are among other facilities. Both the girls' hostel and the boys' hotel are attached to the campus. Hostel rooms are average, but the quality of food served in the mess is good.
Faculty: The faculty members are well known in the hospitality industry with a good amount of experience in hotels, and some have experience in cruises as well. They are helpful and supportive and also provide a good learning environment. Students are trained in the core departments of the hotel, like the front office, food and beverage service, housekeeping, and food production. The course is relevant because of the hands-on experience provided, and it makes students industry-ready through the 4 months of industrial training that is a part of the curriculum.
Other: There were events like theme lunches, workshops, and a food fest organized, but not much. The college needs to host more events and also form various clubs and committees for the same. The college hosts a national seminar every year on a variety of topics. During this seminar, students take part in extracurriculars and also work in departments like kitchens, bakeries, F&B service, front office, and housekeeping.
