CULINARY ARTS & SUSTAINABLE FOOD SYSTEMS

Associate of Applied Science

This new program of study was developed with advisory groups of chefs, farmers, food processors/distributors, and food industry entrepreneurs incorporating the latest professional culinary standards. Graduates of the program will work as chefs or food entrepreneurs in a variety of settings using their "farm to table" competencies to positively impact health.

Students will spend most of their time working in a real production kitchen and foodservice environment, on a sustainable farm, and in an active food production and distribution facility. The curriculum is grounded at the intersection of food production, environmental sustainability, nutrition, and health. Our new state-of-the-art facilities for culinary, food production, and urban growing environments make this a unique hands-on learning opportunity.
