The Best Universities in India for Hotel Management

The tourism industry in India is expected to continue to grow robustly, adding more than 9 million jobs to the country's economy between 2010 and 2020, according to the World Travel and Tourism Council. Job-seekers looking to take advantage of the additional job opportunities may want to consider one of a growing number of university programs that offer degrees in hotel management. In 2009, Indian business newspaper Mint ranked the top programs based on four criteria: faculty, educational offerings, infastructure and job placement.
  1. Oberoi Centre of Learning and Development

    • Established in 1966, the centre is affiliated with the Oberoi Group, which operates 28 hotels and three cruisers in five countries. The centre's management training programs are considered among the best in Asia, and Mint ranks this as India's top hospitality program. Eligibility is limited to students between the ages of 19 and 25 who have completed or are completing a university or college degree in any subject. The program begins each year in July, but the student selection process begins in September of the previous year.

One year later, the college became affiliated with the Welcomgroup, the hotel chain with links to U.S.-based Starwood Company.

Just 100 students begin the four-year program each year, and they're taught by 30 faculty members. Students get on-the-job training in an operational 70-room Welcomgroup Hotel that has three kitchen labs as well as bakery, confectionery, butchery and garde-manger rooms.
