School offers the opportunity to discover the industry

My time at Vatel Maurice was an extremely enriching experience. What struck me the most was the intense immersion in the hotel industry from the start of my studies. Thanks to the many opportunities offered by the school, I had the chance to explore different positions within various hotels and departments, both operational and administrative. This diversity of missions allowed me to develop an in-depth understanding of the entire hotel sector, which constitutes an undeniable advantage for my future career. What I really appreciated about Vatel was its ability to completely immerse us in the world of hospitality. Whether through practical internships, stimulating academic projects or inspiring conferences, the school fully exposes us to the reality of this exciting field. This immersive experience reinforced my passion for hospitality and strengthened my determination to excel in this dynamic sector. I am grateful to Vatel Maurice for providing me with such comprehensive and stimulating training, which truly shaped my professional vision and strengthened my passion for this fascinating field.

balance between academics and student life

Studying at Amity University Mauritius has been an enriching experience in the vibrant island setting of Mauritius. The campus offers a blend of modern facilities and a serene environment conducive to learning. Student life here is diverse and dynamic, with numerous clubs and activities fostering a sense of community among peers. However, the high cost of living on the island can be challenging for international students, affecting choices in accommodation and daily expenses. The university provides decent housing options both on and off-campus, though availability can be competitive. Amity University Mauritius strikes a balance between academic rigor and a culturally immersive student life, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a global education in a tropical paradise.
