Methodology

Why does flipped classroom make the difference?

Our master's programs apply this methodology: theoretical content is worked through independently before each session, so that time on campus is dedicated to what generates the most retention. Because while reading or listening retains between 10% and 20% of information, practicing reaches 90%.

Faculty

What makes our teaching team special?

Our professors are chefs, industry professionals, pastry chefs, researchers, and gastronomic business entrepreneurs who are actively working in the industry. This allows classes to connect theory with real practice: product, technique, management, and the decisions made every day in a kitchen or a gastronomic business.
