Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School
“The unique fact about studying at the Blue Mountains is that all of our degrees come with mandatory internships. In the bachelor degree, there are two paid internships where students can choose to work with our partners in Australia or overseas. The master’s degree comes with one internship.”
“Australia is a great study destination. I can speak for myself; a long time ago, I was an international student as well – I am from Europe – and I chose Australia. I think the lifestyle is great and Australia is a multicultural destination. In terms of safety, I would say that Australia is one of the safest countries to study amongst the big three destinations around the world.”
