Bachelor of Culinary Management (Hons) (Selangor Campus)

The gastronomic experience is no longer just about cooking skills. Students today who aspire to become professionals in the industry, need to understand nutrition, culinary artistry and menu planning amongst other things.

Our degree programme prepares students to address all aspects of the kitchen and meet the challenges of an increasingly sophisticated and demanding culinary industry. In addition to subjects such as Culinary Essentials, Garde Manger and Basic Patisserie, students will also undertake subjects such as Corporate Social Responsibility, Entrepreneurship, Hospitality Marketing and more. Students may choose from two different specialisation:

• Culinary Operations
• Baking and Pastry

Students’ undertaking either specialisations can now further enhance their culinary education with the semester abroad option at ALMA La Scuola Internazionale di Cucina Italiana, Italy (separate charges apply).
