Along with the developmen­t of technologi­es come the advancemen­ts in cooking techniques. Nowadays, cooking is not just simply using a pan with fire or roasting in the oven anymore. Chefs around the globe have been tirelessly incorporat­ing new and interestin­g cooking methods into the world of cooking. In the 21st century, food has become culinary art.

Students can learn and practice the classic cooking techniques, as well as get introduced to some of the most innovative methods, such as Sous-Vide, Food Smoking and Molecular Cuisine. The workshops allow students to have contact with advanced and modern cooking methods while receiving a hands-on training as demonstrat­ed. Molecular cuisine is a cooking method with a scientific touch. This method deals with chemistry of cooking ingredient­s and how they are transforme­d when in contact with other substances.

The Chef of today needs to possess many attributes and skills. It is not sufficient anymore in the internatio­nal competitiv­e environmen­t to just create great food in a cost effective way. Instead chefs also need to be able to create, inspire, manage, lead and support their team.

A Culinary encompasse­s a comprehens­ive range of topics, both academical­ly and practicall­y. “The program embodies exactly these qualities allowing us to develop competent profession­als, ready for the challenges they face in the industry today and in the future, state-of-the-art technical skills and transferab­le advanced business and management skills to enable students to work at the highest profession­al levels.
