On the occasion of its 128th anniversary, the Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne has become the EHL Hospitality Business School. This new name is intended to emphasize the managerial nature of the various hospitality professions in which EHL trains its students.
The new name also accompanies the development of EHL's Graduate School, which includes full-time and part-time master's programs, coursework and executive education focused on hospitality skills for the entire service sector.
With more than 125 nationalities among its students, EHL Hospitality Business School will allow EHL's international audience to identify more closely with the institution while providing greater clarity on its positioning in global academic circles.
Dr. Inès Blal, Executive Dean of EHL
Because of our history, our positioning has always been unique. Today, the name Hospitality Business School fully illustrates our identity, which has evolved with the times while remaining true to its DNA. Indeed, our roots in hotel know-how and management continue to provide a differentiated context for our teaching and research. This approach enriches our courses in management, finance and marketing. Thus, well beyond the hotel industry, a multitude of executives from diverse industries such as banking, real estate, consulting, and luxury manufacturing recruit our graduates.
