Chef Scientist

The School of Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Management in conjunction with the Department of Family and Consumer Science, will be developing a Chef Scientist (Culinology®) degree program. Culinology® is the blending of culinary arts and food science.

This degree program is currently in the development stage and the projected date has changed to Fall 09.

We have developed a minor in culinary science for students to be able to have this opportunity while we work on getting this degree program developed. (For more information click on the minors link in the menu on the left side of the page.)

This program was made possible by a grant from the Hispanic Serving Institutions Education Grant Program, United States Department of Agriculture, Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service.
