The Career

This program covers a broad spectrum of courses to prepare students for careers in the exciting and growing field of restaurant management. The restaurant industry is worldwide, with career potential for students at all levels from local to international. Graduates of this two-year course of study can find management careers with hotel companies, restaurant chains, tourist attractions, recreation facilities, clubs, casinos and convention facilities as well as opportunities with suppliers and support services to the industry.

The service delivery management skills that are the focus of this curriculum are, also, often transferable to other careers in the business world.

The Restaurant Management program will prepare students for careers in a service industry where excellent communication and high-level people skills are necessary, as is the ability to provide bottom-line responsibility. The Restaurant Management program’s educational offerings span the industry needs and are sufficiently applied to support supervisory and entry-level management employment in many areas of the industry.

Each student will be required to gain work experience in the culinary arts signature restaurant for a total of 90 hours in their third semester. Additional general education and business courses are included that will allow the student to develop supportive knowledge, skills and abilities the industry looks for in its career personnel.
