WHAT STUDENTS SAY
HOANG Anh Nguyen, Bank and Finance, April 2021
I studied Banking & Finance at SIHM from April 2016 to March 2021 after graduating from High School in Hanoi, Vietnam. In a way, On my arrival, my English was not too good and my French was inexistent. Indeed, I am a perfect example of a diamond which is the symbol of SIHM. SIHM transforms young and inexperienced students to responsible ladies and gentlemen.
PANDEZ Regina, Hospitality, September 2019
After completing my Bachelor of Science Program in Hospitality Management in a previous School, I decided to change to another school for my MBA. Because I think a new environment will be better for my future career. Fortunately, a friend presented her school, SIHM – Swiss Institute for Higher Management. This is a Management Institute where students can choose among three main Programs Hospitality, Banking & Finance, and Entrepreneurship. I sought out all information about SIHM on Internet and SIHM really attracted me. Then I got a scholarship when I applied for the MBA program.
DJABA Lucien, Hospitality, September 2018
After completing two successive years in the Hotel Management Program offered by another Institute, I decided to change School and pursue my studies in Hospitality Management that is offered by SIHM – Swiss institute for Higher Management in Vevey.
Indeed, the decision to change school is a result of the academic program offered by SIHM in Vevey, which combines Hospitality subjects with Liberal Arts and Entrepreneurship.
MAME Correa Alioune, Hospitality, April 2017
I am sure that the program offered at SIHM will fully satisfy the needs of any young person who wants to become independent and self-employed.

GIJOY Joseph, Bank and Finance July 2017
I decide to pursue my studies at SIHM in order to obtain knowledge in Enterprise Creation. I decided to undertake this program that is offered at SIHM because it met my expectations, as the course can be applied to the future plans that I have set down to launch and manage a company with the assistance of my parents in Ho Chi Minh City related to financial investment. With the knowledge in Banking & Finance, Financial Management, Legal issues, Banking Operations, Business English, etc., I have decided to launch my own business in Vietnam.Indeed, I learned a lot from this Institute especially in the fields of Hospitality Management, and above all, Entrepreneurship and the possibility to accomplish a practical professional Internship.
Students in the Institute shall always be proud of being a product of SIHM as they come with little or no knowledge in Entrepreneurship but shall graduate with a considerable knowledge in this very promising field, which is Enterprise creation.
I am particularly very grateful for the opportunity given to develop intercultural relations with other students from other continents.
SHIHAO Sun, Hospitality, September 2017
I have been in Switzerland for two consecutive years when I came across the SIHM Program from fellow Interns. I then decided to change School. Indeed, the decision to change school is a result of the academic program offered by SIHM in Vevey, which combines Hospitality subjects with Liberal Arts and Entrepreneurship. In this respect, I wish to bring to your attention that the program that is offered at my previous School did not meet to my expectations, as the subjects are focused uniquely towards Hotel Management. In fact, the curriculum was too specific and I felt that I could not apply them to the future plans that I have made. As I was planning to launch and manage a company in Vietnam related to Hospitality operations and investment, knowledge in Entrepreneurship education, finance and legal issues are necessary for the successful operation of my future business. This is the reason why I decided it would be useful to change school especially when I came across the Entrepreneurship and Liberal Arts curriculum offered at the Swiss Institute for Higher Management.
