Dear Visitors,

Welcome to the Institute of Hotel Management, Shillong, established in 2000 as one of the premier centres of hospitality education in the North East. Over the years, IHM Shillong has grown into a hub of excellence, producing skilled professionals who today serve with distinction in leading hotels, restaurants, airlines, cruise lines, and allied industries across the globe. Our strong alumni network continues to inspire and uphold the values of service, integrity, and professionalism.

Set amidst the serene hills of Meghalaya, our campus is equipped with modern training kitchens, front office and housekeeping labs, IT facilities, a resource-rich library, auditorium, and hostel accommodation. These facilities, combined with a dedicated faculty, ensure holistic learning and prepare our students to excel in the dynamic hospitality and tourism sector.

Beyond academics, we are proud to host innovative initiatives like the Jackfruit Techno Incubation Centre, set up under “Mission Jackfruit,” and the North East Fruit Wine Incubation Centre. Both serve as platforms for research, entrepreneurship, and value addition, supporting local farmers and start-ups while linking traditional resources with modern hospitality practices.

IHM Shillong remains committed to nurturing talent, embracing innovation, and contributing to regional and national growth. I invite you to explore our website and follow our official Instagram and Facebook handles for the latest updates.
