Interested in living in Switzerland but still want the benefits of an American education? Read on…
Hotel Institute Montreux blends traditional Swiss hospitality education with contemporary American business studies where students graduate with an American diploma from Northwood University.
A step ahead of the competition, we’ve outlined 5 reasons why an American diploma obtained in Switzerland gives graduates that extra edge in the workforce.
1. Balanced skill sets with competencies:
The American education system requires students to study both general subjects (eg. World Cultures, Literatures) as well as their area of specialization (eg. Finance, Hospitality). Consequently, graduates acquire a more rounded education.
2. Employability:
Particularly in the area of ‘business’, the American education brand travels very well. Employers around the world seek graduates that carry an American degree making it easier to get into the job market directly after graduation.
3. Global Focus:
The American curriculum is generally created in a holistic way allowing it to meet new and changing trends around the world. The focus on the global aspects of each subject offers a broader view of each field and prepares graduates with dynamic skillsets matched for the ever changing global village.
4. First-class Lecturers:
The American education system imposes high regulations on the requirements for lecturers at each academic level. In addition to these qualifications, professional experience in the subject area is strongly emphasized as a requirement.
5. Study in English:
The American curriculum is taught in English even when you are studying abroad. This allows you to master English while still having access to the local languages.
