A PRIVILEGED LOCATION: PARIS AND THE INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY CENTER

The city represents an unmatched concentration of refined five-star hotels and palaces such as the Ritz, Plaza Athénée, Four Seasons George V,  Meurice, Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton,   … all of which regularly open their doors to our students.

The neighborhood of the International University Center, including verdant Park Montsouris, is one of the best environments for students in Paris.  It offers a veritable campus atmosphere, notably thanks to the Rockefeller Foundation's International House which houses a large library, a theater, restaurants, cafés, meeting rooms,… all of which are available to our students.

Our students can also benefit from Paris' large research centers – the Pompidou Center, the National Library of France, and the American Library. 

At the end of their course of studies – Bachelor, Master or Professional Studies– this combination of advantages offers our students (often with contracts signed prior to graduation) top-rated management positions around the world in renowned hospitality establishments and also enables them to pursue their studies toward AACSB accredited MBA.
