University of Montana West (COT) Offers Summer Head Start for Culinary Degrees

The University of Montana College of Technology will open its doors this summer to recently graduated high school students and anyone else wanting to get an early start on fall classes in the COT’s Culinary Program.

The two classes – Intro to the Food Service Industry and Food Service Sanitation – are part of the curriculum for both the four-semester Food Service Management Associate of Applied Science degree and the two-semester Culinary Arts Certificate. It is recommended that the courses be taken together.

Intro to the Food Service Industry is scheduled for Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to 12:10 p.m. June 9–July 23. This five-credit class will cover fundamentals in food handling practice, history, cooking methods, tool and equipment skills, safety and sanitation, and recipe and menu development.

Food Service Sanitation will be taught on Mondays from 8 a.m. to noon June 8–July 20. This two-credit class will cover the fundamentals of safe and sanitary food handling procedures, with an emphasis on the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point food safety program.

Tuition and fee information for both classes can be found on UM’s Cyberbear Web site, http://www.umt.edu/cyberbear.
