This unique BBA Culinary Industry Management, jointly delivered by Birkbeck and the renowned Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Arts Institute, provides you with a firm foundation in culinary techniques and the skills required to manage successful food businesses or to progress your career in the service industry.
This culinary industry management degree allows you to address key concepts in the culinary arts while learning the project management and development skills required of managers in food businesses in the twenty-first century. You will also gain experience of a real food business work environment through an internship component. Some of the employers we have worked with include the Maybourne Hotel Group, Firmdale Hotels, The Ritz London, Galvin Restaurants, D&D London and The Wolseley Hospitality Group.
The course also enables you to develop your research and presentation skills together with your ability to design, develop and implement systems that assist in the successful operation of a food business. It encourages forward thinking and the ability to develop ideas that may provide a positive contribution to the changing needs of the global food industry and the environment in which it operates. Teaching on this London-based culinary management degree is equally split between Birkbeck and Le Cordon Bleu London.
If you opt for the Foundation Year route, this will fully prepare you for undergraduate study. It is ideal if you are returning to study after a gap, or if you have not previously studied the relevant subjects, or if you didn't achieve the grades you need for a place on your chosen undergraduate degree. Throughout the year, you will have the opportunity to engage with Le Cordon Bleu by attending culinary demonstrations and networking events.
You can study this course full-time, with classes taking place in the daytime or evening.
Please note: This is an academically rigorous course which is best suited to individuals who are looking to progress into a culinary/food service management role, while gaining an understanding of culinary arts techniques.
