Our partners
Key partnerships with industry leaders ensure that our programs remain relevant and reflect latest trends and insights. Our industry partners contribute to the creation of academic programs, hold guest lectures on campus, and host visits to their premises to provide students additional insights into real-life operations.
In July 2019, we welcomed IHTTI’s talented students and faculty as guests in our Leysin and Caux campuses. Finally, in 2021, IHTTI became family as we integrated their world-renowned design courses into the validated degree programs at SHMS.
The legacy and heritage of IHTTI remain and are proud to combine our expertise under one roof now at SHMS.
