It has further tie-ups with universities and institutes in the USA, Australia, Mauritius, Middle East and South East Asian countries.
The institute can boast of remarkably talented alumni across the world serving some of the world's best, most celebrated and largest hotel chains. With a figure of more than 10,000 IIHM alumni, the institute has produced some of the finest human resources, who not only indulge in all types of services related to the hospitality industry, but also help make the world a better place through the creation and spread of highly technical knowledge.
With a striking vision, IIHM has painstakingly created a multicultural environment in all its campuses. Both due to the immense popularity of the institute and its various affiliations and tie-ups; students from Thailand, Armenia, Singapore, South Korea, South Africa, Bangladesh and many other countries consider IIHM a preferred destination for hotel management programs.
Not only students, the mentors at IIHM have also assisted in creating a multicultural environment that is quite helpful in building a global character of their students. A highly dedicated and professional team of more than 300 tutors, mentors and professors belonging to different nationalities who are experts in their chosen disciplines help students learn enthusiastically.

IIHM has partnered with the George Brown College in Canada with a target of helping students develop not only technical hospitality skills, but also a career and then make a living in Canada. Looking at its impressive record of more than 10,000 graduates who have successfully established their career in some of the world's best hotel chains in Europe, USA, Canada and South East Asia, a successful institutional stint in Canada would be undoubtedly successful.
