The present Enderun campus is a showcase in its own right. Its educational facilities have been designed to create an optimal learning environment for students. Facilities planners have taken full advantage of state-of-the art learning technologies-including cutting-edge audiovisual equipment and wireless networking in classrooms and demonstration labs - to ensure that the Hotel School's physical environment fully maximizes the students' learning experience.
The Hotel College enrolled its first full freshman class in June 2006, and will gradually scale its enrollment to more than 2000 students by 2010. To accommodate a larger student enrollment, a new campus that includes a College-managed boutique hotel, is currently in development and slated for completion in 2009.
The Culinary Arts training restaurant is now open for reservations and private dining. Guests of Restaurant 101 in our Ortigas Campus may come and try the delectable meals prepared by students, providing a venue for hands-on learning in a real-life setting. Enderun’s Culinary Arts program rivals those of top Culinary Arts Schools.
Enderun being the most modern Hotel Management School in the Philippines, all classrooms are equipped with wireless internet access to provide an optimal learning environment for students in the dynamic international hospitality industry.
To match the standards of our industry partners and other international culinary arts schools, our culinary arts laboratory kitchen is fully wired for closed circuit audio and video feed directly to the classrooms to maximize the instruction capabilities of our excellent culinary faculty
The Enderun Media Center and Library offers a varied collection of books and reference materials ranging from general education to hospitality management and culinary arts.
Enderun's commitment to delivering a world-class educational experience to students, and to establishing itself among the world's premier undergraduate management schools is nowhere more evident than in its commitment to developing world-class facilities. The Enderun campus in Fort Bonifacio sets new standards for university design and is becoming an iconic Philippine architectural landmark.
The campus, situated on two lavishly landscaped hectares in the McKinley Hill area of Fort Bonifacio, features seven academic buildings with more than 7,000 square meters of classroom space. Each building exterior evokes a different era and brand of Asian colonial architecture, with the campus laid out as a microcosm of the Asian colonial cityscape. An "Embassy" houses the College's foreign language faculty; a "Museum" host the general education faculty; a "Bank" will play home to the Enderun management faculty; and a 1,500 square meter Student Union will house the Philippines' largest management and hospitality-related library, as well as host of student recreational facilities, including lounges, meeting rooms and restaurants. The campus will also feature a student-manned luxury boutique hotel and a student dormitory, both designed to evoke the grandeur and elegance of Asia's colonial era.
Because a university education is about welding the accumulated knowledge, wisdom and values of the past to the future's boundless potential, the new Enderun Colleges campus does more than merely pay tribute to Asia's history. It showcases the region's present dynamism and future promise, as classical exteriors give way to ultra-modern interiors, equipped with the latest learning technologies, including a dedicated fibre-optic network. At the heart of the campus, amid the monuments to Asia's elegant past, stands a vision of its luminous future: a sleek, ultra-modern culinary center, in stunning steel and glass -- Manila's answer to the Louvre Pyramid.
Enderun has partnered with Alain Ducasse Formation to design and operate this new culinary center, which features Asia’s most distinguished culinary faculty, and which offers Enderun students the opportunity to master cutting-edge culinary principles and techniques, after foundational training in the classical European tradition. Alain Ducasse is France’s most celebrated chef, and the only chef within the Michelin guide to have held a three star ranking (the top ranking) in three different countries.
At Enderun, past, present and future meet, along with some of the hospitality industry’s finest minds, to create a unique learning environment, and a breeding ground for future industry leaders.
Enderun, which will complete all development by 2009, is setting new standards, not just with its globally-recognized academic programs, but with its commitment to excellence in design. Enderun's Fort Bonifacio complex will stand alone: a landmark campus in the heart of Metropolitan Manila for Asia's leading hotel college.
