The Culinary Arts Program at Massasoit prepares students to enter the diverse and exciting field of food service. A field work experience requirement obliges the student to have a minimum of 240 hours of paid/non-paid experience in a food-service establishment, thus giving him/her the practical knowledge necessary to supplement his/her studies.
 The curriculum for Culinary Arts requires courses in a wide variety of subject areas as well as at least fifteen Culinary Arts courses. All Culinary Arts students are required to adhere to a dress code, and provide and care for their own uniforms. |
Culinary Arts & Hospitality Departments
Massasoit Culinary Arts department continues to add more classes to it's Weekend College program. Student's are now able to take most culinary labs on either Saturday or Sunday. In additon, traditional core classes such as English and Math can be taken on Friday evenings or online during the semester. This format allows students who cannot attend traditional weekday classes the opportunity to earn their degree in Culinary Arts.
Upon completion of this program, the student will be prepared for any entry level cooking or baking position, with endless possibilities for growth in the future. If the suggested course outline is followed, the student will be able to complete this program in as little as two years.
