The DHMC curriculum follows the standards set by the country’s Commission on Higher Education. The bachelor degree programme in hospitality management that DHMC is offering is certified by the world renowned École hôtelière de Lausanne. Throughout the programme students gain work experience and exposure in the dusitD2 the Fort, Manila – and will also complete a six-month internship, which may be completed in the Philippines or internationally. 

“Dusit Hospitality Education is proud to establish in Manila, and bring to the Philippines the very best of international education in hospitality and culinary arts. We will introduce programmes and pedagogy of the highest international standards.
