SDM Institute of Hotel Management Ujire

SDM Institute of Hotel Management in Ujire is run by the Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Educational Institutions, one of Karnataka's most respected and values-driven educational trusts. The institute is located in Ujire, Dakshina Kannada district, and affiliated to Mangalore University with AICTE approval. The DME Trust's philosophy of values-based education strongly influences the hotel management programme at SDM Ujire. Students are trained not just in technical hospitality skills but in professional discipline, guest service ethics, and community responsibility — qualities that the hospitality industry increasingly values. The Ujire location, close to Dharmasthala — one of Karnataka's most visited pilgrimage and tourism sites — gives students a unique live hospitality environment to observe large-scale crowd management and community catering. The institute has a training kitchen, food service lab, front office simulation, and housekeeping facilities. SDM Ujire's low fee structure compared to Bangalore and Manipal options makes it one of the most affordable quality hotel management programmes in Karnataka. Graduates find placements in hotels across Coastal Karnataka, Bangalore, and in Gulf hospitality markets where SDM alumni have a strong presence. Hostel available.
