Success stories

With the curiosity to try something new and an inclination towards creativity, I decided to pursue a degree in Culinary Arts at ISH, which helped me bring out my creative side through the plate that I serve.

 

The extensive real world experience of ISH faculty is a differentiator, and our global curriculum goes beyond just the classroom or the kitchen. We are encouraged to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset which helps us understand each aspect of a business.

 

Learning about consumer behaviour and the evolution of the market has motivated us to think about new ventures and bring them to life.
