the rundown
Imagine studying in an Australian castle overlooking spectacular Manly Beach, soaking in both knowledge and sun. That's what the International College of Management Sydney (or ICMS for short) is all about. It's a special place where students from over 40 countries come together, learning from professors who are industry leaders in their fields, managing hotels, executing events, and more. A stunning campus in an equally stunning city.
your academic journey
ICMS isn't your typical college. It started off focusing on hospitality and tourism but has grown into a hub for all things business. Whether you're into accounting, sports management, or event planning, they've got you covered. And for hospitality students, there's an exclusive opportunity to intern at Sydney’s five-star hotels over the summer— and yes, it's paid!
Nestled atop a picturesque cliff and overlooking Sydney Harbour, the International College of Management, Sydney (ICMS), known fondly as "the castle on the hill," is more than just a breathtaking landmark. This historical gem, originally constructed between 1885 and 1889 as St Patrick’s College, was the first National Catholic Seminary in Australia, designed in an exquisite blend of Neo-Gothic and Romanesque architectural styles. Now, it stands as a premier destination for over 1,800 international students, offering degrees across a variety of disciplines.
ICSM is all about equipping students with top-tier skills and knowledge to thrive in their chosen fields— that’s what has landed them in Australia's top programs for hospitality and event management.

Using various statistical tools students will embark on data collection and analysis in the property market. To better help represent data, map themes, identify market trends and complete a site analysis, students will also be introduced to a Geographic Spatial Analysis (GIS) program.

University of Florida
“Studying abroad with Hop has truly been the best decision I have ever made. In a short amount of time, I have explored the lively rainforests and the shimmering Great Barrier Reef. I've climbed mountains, sat at the edge of waterfalls, and even surfed the waves of the Gold Coast. I've met so many new friends from different backgrounds who unite on the same goal of discovering and learning, and I couldn’t have done that without Hop.”
