It is a great achievement for our organization that after such long years of service we are being recognized for our work. After receiving the award, we are motivated to work even harder to ensure quality education. Students can now recognize us through this award and make an informed decision for their education. The first thing a student should do is make sure the college faculty has good networks in the business world. Along with this, the infrastructure of the college also plays an important role. These three factors are crucial when it comes to selecting a college. NATHM is one of the top colleges for hospitality in South Asia with its well known faculty. We have a well developed curriculum and business links all over the world. Our certificate is recognized all over the world because of which students can easily get a job opportunity. NATHM is opening a 4-star hotel which brings industry and institution on the same platform. This helps students to get internships in their own college.
