Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management
Course Overview
The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management is Dubai's premier hospitality school, founded by Jumeirah Group (the operator of the Burj Al Arab) and academically associated with the École hôtelière de Lausanne — the world's #1-ranked hospitality school. Its BSc International Hospitality Management combines management theory with immersive industry placements inside Dubai's luxury-hotel ecosystem. For Sri Lankan students drawn to hospitality, tourism and luxury-brand careers, the Academy offers a globally recognised qualification in the city that defines high-end hospitality.
The three-year curriculum covers hotel and resort operations, revenue management, food-and-beverage, marketing, finance and leadership, with two paid internships built into the programme — typically inside Jumeirah and partner properties. Dubai's status as a global tourism hub means graduates step straight into one of the most active hospitality job markets in the world, with the UAE's Golden Visa pathway open to high-skill professionals.
