Review of V.M. Salgaocar Institute of International Hospitality Education.

Placements: Established hotel brands, such as Taj, Marriott, and Accor, among others, visit the campus recruitment placements. It explore further work opportunities in India for their Management Trainee programs. Everyone from my batch finds their internship with the help of the institute.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities provided by the institute are outstanding. They are up to date with the ever-growing world of hospitality. They are essential for working in the world’s finest hotels and establishments. Classrooms having a smart TV, projector, laptop, and speaker. Library has a wide collection of books that are updated every few weeks. It is vast to help students learn in depth about different subjects, ranging from Food Production to Hospitality Law, and other important books that are relevant to the course. Food is hygienically prepared, nutritious, and delicious. The hostel is also well equipped with furniture.

Faculty: Teachers are very well qualified to teach their subjects, both theoretically and practically. The curriculum is very relevant to the hospitality industry as it teaches day-to-day operational knowledge that is vital in becoming a good hotelier. Important subjects like Food and Beverages Control, Consumer Behavior, and Food Microbiology are good examples. The semester exams are good as they depend on the student’s interest in the subjects, so the difficulty is not much. A lot of industry visits, trips to rural villages, and meetings with hospitality professionals are also inculcated in the course.

Other: I chose this course as I know I have an idea of becoming a chef in the future, but I need help with molding and developing my personality, attitude, and skills to become the best version of myself. The course never feels repetitive as every aspect considers discipline, knowledge, etiquette, and giving your best. Many student-based events take place, such as cultural nights, food festivals, and theme dinners. Many more examples that test the student based on aptitude and adaptability. The campus life itself is very friendly, well-mannered, and disciplined.

I'm absolutely satisfied with the institute.

Placements: A total of 23 students in my batch, making it an amazing experience to learn and grow. The highest package that I have seen my senior get is 42 LPA. Major recruiting companies are Taj, Marriott, Hilton, and Marthinal Portugal. In my course, all the students got an opportunity for internships in Portugal. As I am in the culinary field, the roles offered depend on the experience we gain, and it all depends on how you mould yourself for the future.

Infrastructure: I personally would say the institute has one of the best top-class infrastructures. And would inform all the students interested in visiting the institute and checking it. All the classrooms are air-conditioned. The quality of food is good, offering different types of meals every day. For example, one day veg meals, the next day non-veg meals.

Faculty: For me personally, my teachers are really helpful, well-qualified and very knowledgeable. The teachers are well prepared and ready to answer all the students ' questions. Mostly, handouts are provided by the faculty. The course is relevant, and it makes the students industry-ready, but again, 50% is theoretical knowledge and 50% is practical knowledge, and it is a 100% when you put your full dedication and hard work together. The semester exams in my college are not very difficult because our faculty explains things so well that the exams feel easy to answer.

Other: I chose this course because I am passionate about cooking and creating something unique. The best things about my course are that everything is so well structured, like our practical class, our 6-month international internship in Portugal, and now we will have our restaurant events starting soon. I think the years I have spent here studying, they try to improve every day by talking to us and taking suggestions if we need a change. So, as far as I'm concerned, the institute is excellent, and even my course is really good. We also get an opportunity to host multiple events on our own.
