The U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics projects continued growth in job openings for culinary graduates. Consumer expectations continue to rise causing the industry to demand a higher level of graduate skill than ever before.
At The Art Institute of Pittsburgh, students first learn the fundamentals, including knife and hand skills.

Students become skilled in advanced food preparation techniques that allow them to transform basic ingredients into culinary art.
By graduation, Associate’s degree students are prepared to seek entry-level positions in the field including prep cook, line cook and first cook.
