From the Desk of Principal

Welcome to Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University ) Institute of Hotel Management & Catering Technology, Pune

Prof. Lalita Chirmulay Principal

“Dear Friends,

It is my honor and privilege to be associated with this Institute since its inception in 1992. The Institute was established by Dr. Patangrao Kadam, Founder of Bharati Vidyapeeth who cherished the dream of making this institute a center of excellence in Hotel Management and Catering Technology. During my tenure, I have committed myself to the task of realizing this dream.

I firmly believe in the objectives of our institute:

To offer students the opportunity to develop their practical, management and communication abilities and provide each individual student with the training know how for a successful career in the highly competitive Hospitality Industry.

To develop the personality of a student as required by the hospitality industry.

To make students worthy citizens of the nation.

It has been my conviction that an excellent education can be given to the students, only if excellent infrastructural facilities are created and carefully selected experienced, student-oriented teachers are there in the faculty. Over the years we have developed both our staff and various laboratories, carefully updating the equipment periodically. Our Library is enriched with books and is continuously updated. I am really fortunate to have very competent student-caring teachers on the roll of our Institute, who are known for their expertise in different branches of Hotel & Catering Management.

I also believe that in the Service Industry, it is important to practice courtesy and manners, develop one’s personality and communication skills, and be disciplined, which is all included in the course along with the academics. One must have the right attitude towards the service industry.

I am happy to record here that our efforts have paid ample dividends. Our students are well placed in the Industry and the Hotels have recognized us as one of the good Training Institute on the right track.”
