Campus life
● Glion campus is both our flagship and practical learning center. The campus nestles in the hills above Montreux, offering spectacular views of Lake Geneva and the Alps. In this boutique hotel environment, you will experience the most sophisticated, cutting edge elements of hospitality and fine dining.
● Bulle campus is housed in a modern, university-style building which is situated between beautiful mountains, a medieval town and a thriving city. The academic center incorporates 16 classrooms and study rooms, together with a well-stocked library.
● London campus is located in Downshire House, in the grounds of the University of Roehampton (UoR). The campus provides a close-knit, friendly atmosphere, with easy access to all the facilities of the wider UoR campus, including its world-class library, restaurants, student clubs and sports venues.
Glion Institute of Higher Education is accredited at university level by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE). This means Glion is allowed to deliver its own undergraduate and graduate awards.
- Accreditation by NECHE is not partial, it applies to the institution as a whole. As such, this recognition is not a guarantee of every course or program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. However, accreditation provides reasonable assurance about the quality of services and opportunities available to students who attend the institution.
