Les Roches-Gruyère University of Applied Sciences is the first private University of Applied Sciences in hotel management in Switzerland. It offers a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management including a specialisation in international hospitality management or a specialisation in food, beverage and operations management that is recognised by the Swiss government and that meets the Bologna European standards. It also offers a one year Master of advanced studies. This university uses the resources and facilities of the highly-reputed Swiss institutions of Les Roches International School of Hotel Management and of Glion Institute of Higher Education*. Both of these institutions were recently ranked in a worldwide industry survey to be among the top three hospitality management schools in the world for an international career. GIHE and Les Roches, our sister schools, are accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) in the USA and are not part of the federally authorised UAS.

Les Roches Gruyère - University of Applied Sciences

U N I V E R S I T Y O F A P P L I E D S C I E N C E S
2. What is LRG
Les Roches Gruyère University of Applied Sciences is a new
University that received official federal authorization on
the 2nd of July 2008 from the Swiss government.
Second private UAS ever approved in Switzerland
First private UAS in the hotel management field
In January 2009, it launched a Bachelor of Science in
Hospitality Management.
3. What is LRG
http://www.bbt.admin.ch/themen/hochschulen/00215/00232/index.html?lang=fr
4. What are the criteria to be a UAS
1. To deliver a Bologna Style degree that meets Swiss
entry requirements
2. To deliver post graduate degree: (Master of Advanced
Studies)
3. To undertake Research
4. To undertake consultancy
5. Why the name of LRG?
One of our prime objective was to launch a new
university that would receive immediate recognition
throughout the world and the hospitality industry. The
name of Les Roches is very well known and is among
the top three hospitality schools in the world, hence
taking advantage of its prime position and recognised
brand name.
We were not allowed to use the name “Glion” as it is
the name of a town and we do not meet the criteria
necessary to use it.
NEASC and the Swiss Government did not allow us to
use “Les Roches University of Applied Sciences”
because too close and similar to the current Les Roches
International School of Hotel Management.
6. Why the name of LRG?
To clearly differentiate this new university and as it will
be registered in the Canton of Fribourg and more
specifically in the Gruyère region (which is different
from the cheese which is spelled with an “s” at the end
of “Gruyères”), the word Gruyère was added to the
name. Also, the main campus will be in Bulle which is
also part of the Gruyère region.
Hence Les Roches-Gruyère University of Applied
Sciences was chosen to ensure quick recognition within
the industry through the name of “Les Roches”, and to
differentiate it from the current Les Roches through its
distinctive location in the Gruyère region.
Logo was changed recently to put more emphasis on
the UAS aspect rather than LRG
