- Program Outline
No new admissions into this program.
The Le Cordon Bleu Graduate Program in Gastronomy is the result of collaboration between the University of Adelaide, through its Research Centre for the History of Food and Drink, and Le Cordon Bleu International. It is one of the few programs in the world leading to an advanced degree in gastronomic studies, and the only one available for online study. The programs have been developed for individuals who have a passion for food and drink and for professionals seeking related careers in education, hospitality, media or tourism. They are designed to provide a generalised understanding of the history and culture of food and drink from ancient times to the present, at the same time offering students opportunities to explore their own areas of interest.
