Be a culinary problem solver
Start your journey at JWU
JWU’s College of Food Innovation & Technology (CFIT), food is a framework for exploring systemic change. Start with a foundation of classic techniques in baking & pastry arts or culinary arts and take your studies in a nearly limitless number of directions, thanks to a growing list of food-related programs — ranging from culinary science and entrepreneurship to nutrition/dietetics, product development, sustainability and beyond — and interdisciplinary projects with other JWU colleges.
Putting learning into action — and gaining perspectives outside your own major — is part of JWU’s educational DNA. And when you visit CFIT labs, it quickly becomes clear that JWU students are problem solvers who know how to think on their feet, with a sense of professionalism, focus and creative drive that’s second to none.
If you’re passionate about food, there’s no better place to prepare you to solve the world’s next big culinary challenges. Are you ready?
