 Culinary Management (2259) Associate in Science/Associate in Applied Science Mission The Institute of the South for Hospitality and Culinary Arts is dedicated to the meaningful learning and excellent teaching that enables our students to achieve their full potential in the hospitality, dietetics and food service industries. Our long term goal is to empower students to become leading partners in a dynamic prosperous community. The Program This competency-based Culinary Management program is designed to prepare students for employment in production line and supervisory positions in the culinary arts industry as station chefs, sous chefs, second or first cooks, or lead cooks. The long range goal is to provide students with occupational preparation in becoming chefs in restaurants, hotels, clubs and large industrial kitchens. Competencies are developed by students through theory, laboratory, retail restaurant experience in the College-operated food facilities and internships in local restaurant and hotel kitchens. The Dietetic Technician (Culinary Dietetic Option) is available for students desiring multi-disciplinary training. This option will enable graduates to use culinary arts, nutrition and food service management skills in a variety of traditional and non-traditional job settings. Successful completion of this program qualifies graduates to take the national registration examination of the American Dietetic Association. The Culinary Management program is offered at Naval Air Station Jacksonville and Naval Station Mayport to navy mess specialists. This program is arranged to fit into the navy mess specialist schedule. It is open to other navy personnel and dependents. Internships Students must supply their own health insurance coverage while enrolled in the program. The companies that provide internships require students to have insurance coverage while on their premises. Top national chains call us every semester looking for talent. Culinary Management students have 600 internship hours, and are usually paid to learn. Career Opportunities Kitchens and dining rooms are the new theatre, and chefs and managers the stars. The National Restaurant Association says Americans spend $4.4 billion a year dining out, and the U.S. Department of Labor predicts the industry will add nearly 2 million jobs over the next decade. Rapid Placement Our graduates are quickly employed at the Ritz-Carlton and Amelia Island Plantation, and gourmet events for the Super Bowl and PGA Tour. They are at the Hyatt and Omni hotels, the Ponte Vedra Inn, PF Chang’s, Cheesecake Factory, Roy’s and Chardonnay’s Catering.
