"Our size becomes a springboard for bringing passions to the next level," says Mark Petrig, CEO.

As one of the world's finest hospitality management schools, IMI is home to a small and diverse set of students. Each year, the Swiss school attracts the best students worldwide, ranging from high school graduates to top hospitality and tourism employees. 

Situated along Lake Lucerne, the IMI campus is enveloped by a spectacular backdrop of Mount Rigi and Mount Pilatus in the Swiss Alps. Its proximity to Switzerland's efficient rail, road and airport networks also creates an ideal academic setting for its specialised programmes and practical training offerings. 

"Combining academic rigour and hands-on approach with this highly edifying environment, the institute produces a happy, confident and successful student body," Petrig says.
