With the Bachelor in International Hotel Management, you are qualified to hold operational management positions in the international hotel and tourism industries. During these 3 years of schooling, Vatel students: - acquire professional, legal, economic and fundamental linguistic knowledge for their field; - learn managerial techniques and team-leading skills.

When they have acquired the basics in hotel management and professional culture, students can focus on analytical methods and decision-making as managers. Studying key strategic rules and applying them in international companies from all fields leads students to define concrete examples of management in the tourism and hospitality management fields. In their 5th year of school, students can choose from one of the 10 Vatel MBA Specializations. To get used to the recruitment process, students who will soon graduate look for their own internships, in line with their professional projects. This last internship, which must be validated by the school and which lasts for six months, aims to have students practice highly strategic managerial functions.
