Chairman's Welcome
Education is perhaps one of the most important yet inadequately met needs of our country. Educational needs have undergone a sea change over the past decades and it is vital that we keep pace with this change. Kohinoor's approach has always been futuristic. We have always strived to anticipate the needs of the future and fulfill them. The motto of Kohinoor - IMI is 'Making the future happen in the present'.

With the changing global scenario, there is a phenomenal growth in service sector industries all over the world. We are acutely aware of a lacuna in the country in terms of a world-class educational institute to groom students into service industry professionals, who could make it anywhere in the world; and Kohinoor - IMI was the result.

Kohinoor - IMI is aimed at creating global managers not only for the hospitality sector, but also for the entire service industry. I understand that this is an exciting and challenging time for you and this decision of yours will underpin your future career. If you decide to take the journey with us, you can be confident that you have joined not only one of the most prestigious and experienced private schools in India but one that values you as a person and seeks to nurture and develop your individual strengths. I welcome you to join Kohinoor-IMI with a promise that you will be proud to be among the alumni of this school.

Vice Principal's Message
Kohinoor-IMI School of Hospitality Management is situated in the luscious surroundings of Khandala in Maharashtra. The climate is good, the facilities and infrastructure are excellent. Kohinoor - IMI was listed as the best Hotel Management Institute in Maharashtra and ranked in the top fifteen hotel management institutes in the whole of India in the independent 2008 CSR-GHRDC survey.

The global hospitality, travel and tourism Industry is soon expected to employ 20% of the worlds working population. This industry exists in all countries and is expanding; the global shortage of well groomed, skilled and committed people is real. There has never been a better time to be thinking of joining this dynamic industry where opportunities for young people to travel and climb the corporate ladder are excellent.

Campus recruiters include the major hotel and service sector companies from India and beyond. Many KIMI Alumni are working overseas or pursuing further studies across the globe in Asia, Europe, North America and Australia.
