This degree covered a variety of topics relating to the hospitality industry and business skills, including, accommodation, interpersonal skills, food and drink sales, finance, economics and marketing. The course is both practical and theory based offering the chance to run one of the university staff restaurants on campus. Through this experience I have been able to work as part of the Front of House Team, a Pastry Chef, and Head Chef.
