This course is aimed at graduate who are keen to make a career as chef in the hotels, restaurants or cruise industry. F&B Service background students who are interested to switch over to culinary are also eligible. The curriculum focuses right from basics, intermediate to the advanced level in the culinary industry.
The course is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed for a successful career in the hospitality operations part of a cruise, as well as providing an essential understanding of elements relating to life and work on a cruise ship. In addition to being introduced to the wider world of the cruise industry, its history, players, customers, regulations, concerns such as safety, security, professionalism etc., students will be studying specialist operational elements such as front office, customer service, effective communication, essential information technology skills etc.
