Gastronomy, the tourism sector and the agro-food company are booming and constantly evolving sectors. The constant emergence of new needs defines the present situation.
The new professional that the gastronomic sector demands, must have a great interdisciplinary training alongside the areas of gastronomy, management and science. There is no doubt that this new generation of professionals must emerge from a specialized university degree.
In this sector, students will be able to take operative executive positions such as executive chefs or culinary directors and respond to management profiles such as Food & Beverage Directors. Graduates will be able to hold senior management positions in a company, create a gastronomic or agro-food business of their own or advise other companies on the improvement of their processes.
The knowledge in the scientific and gastronomic area makes our students the perfect candidates for the agro-food industry in different areas: R & D, quality control and production management. In the purest scientific branch, students can develop a professional career devoted entirely to research.
The field of gastronomic university training also needs highly qualified professional profiles and university graduates, which is why this option is becoming another career opportunity for our graduate students.
