Culinary arts is the art of preparing, cooking and presenting food. More than just putting together a dish to fill a person’s stomach, culinary arts is about creating and serving memorable dishes that delight both the eyes and the palate. Anyone can cook a meal to fend off hunger, but only the brilliant can prepare a meal that will lure people to come back for more.

A course in culinary arts will impart the knowledge, skills, and techniques to prepare various types of food and beverages, from Western and Asian cuisine to bread, cakes and pastries. You will also learn how to work in a kitchen and run it effectively.

In addition, a Degree in Culinary Arts may include business and management subjects, such as marketing, accounting, and entrepreneurship. These are particularly useful if you want to take up a managerial position in the F&B (food and beverage) or hospitality industry or start your own restaurant.
