Career Diploma (12 months) + Specialist Diploma (6 months) + Bachelor’s Degree (12 months) = 30 months  / 2.5 years

The Career Diploma is a 12-month programme consisting of 6 months of study and 6 months of paid internship. It equips learners with advanced culinary and kitchen management skills, as well as critical thinking and managerial competencies required in restaurant and food production environments.  

The programme is designed to bridge industry skills gaps, align training with emerging and future job roles, and provide a strong foundation for higher qualifications in food services. Learners will develop comprehensive skills and knowledge across Culinary Arts and Pastry & Bakery, supporting both professional readiness and long-term career progression. 

The Specialist Diploma is a 6-month online programme designed for learners who aspire to build strong foundations in both entrepreneurship and specialised domain knowledge. Learners may choose to focus on either food entrepreneurship or culinary wellness, depending on their career interests and professional goals. 

Through the food entrepreneurship pathway, learners develop cross-disciplinary entrepreneurial skills aligned with the Start-Up Lab initiative, equipping them with the mindset, capabilities, and practical tools required to pursue and scale business ventures beyond the food and beverage industry. The culinary wellness pathway adopts a holistic approach to cuisine and health, providing deeper insights into the relationship between food and well-being, including emerging perspectives on the gut microbiome and the scientific interpretation of traditional cuisines. 

Graduates may then progress to the BA (Hons) Business Studies with Entrepreneurship Level 6 (Top-up) degree, a 12-month programme designed to develop knowledge, skills and aptitude in entrepreneurship. It prepares students to start and manage business, navigate a fast-changing global business environment and create employment opportunities while also benefitting those seeking roles in SMEs.
