The University of Gastronomic Sciences was established in January 2003 by Slow Food in conjunction with the regional authorities of Emilia-Romagna and Piedmont.Â
It is a private university “working to renew farming methods, protect biodiversity and maintain an organic relationship between gastronomy and agricultural science”.
Carlo Petrini says the study of gastronomy never had academic dignity; Â “gastronomy today is something serious, it is serious for the economy and for the defence of a nation’s culture”.
The University offers a three year undergraduate course, post graduate programs and masters programs.
I am a passionate qualified chef. I want to learn food gastronomy. Its inpires me for my future plans. Where shall I start? where is the best place for me to gain the knowledge?
Many Cheers,
Mani.
