Master of Hospitality Management Degree Program

In a major push to support the development of Accor’s growing network in Vietnam, the Master of Hospitality Management Degree program will create a pool of talented and experienced middle-managers for Accor and support the growth of the hospitality industry. The degree will last 15 months including 5 months of internship, with the first class starting this October. The program will be divided in three parties:

1) Fundamental modules and foreign languages (French and English)
2) Application and practical course
3) Internship

The curriculum will include a variety of courses such as international marketing, budgeting and cost analysis, quality management and international law for tourism.

Accor will sponsor up to 20 students per class half the course fees, place them in Accor hotels for internships and offer them a full-time position within its network upon completion of this Master degree program. Selection criteria will be based on academic results, professional experience and above all, motivation and career potential.

In addition, Accor will actively participate in the recruitment process, provide professional lecturers, and attend steering committees in order to maximize the adequacy between the program and the business reality of the market.
