Recently, IFTM invited Mr. Kavi Khemlani, Hospitality Consultant and Alumni Ambassador, and Ms. Veronica Yin, Regional Admissions Manager to provide several briefing sessions of this [3+1 Dual Bachelor Programme]to interested students.

"Through this session, I obtained a lot of valuable information" said senior student Wang Runqing. “These two schools are not only able to provide students with professional knowledge, but also broaden our horizon of the development of the hospitality industry in different parts of the world. For me, I think this is a very good opportunity and I am grateful to IFTM for providing such a wonderful educational environment for us!"

After each briefing session, many students showed great interest in the programme and took the initiative to stay and discuss among themselves and their peers. Some enthusiastic students even took the chance to communicate with the two guest speakers individually seeking further information. “IFTM has provided many resources and opportunities to not only improve our field of study, but also make the university experience more diverse and fruitful,” Sophomore student, Hilbert, complimented.
