Bachelor of Science (Nutrition)/ TAFE Certificate IV in Hospitality
(Catering Operations)
This 4 year program allows students to graduate with both a BSc (Nutrition)
and the TAFE Certificate IV in Hospitality (Catering Operations). Undertaking
the two qualifications separately would normally take 5 years. This combined
program provides a sound training in nutritional science and its applications
to human nutrition, as well as practical food service management skills.
Topics covered in the TAFE component include staff supervision, menu planning,
food safety systems, customer service and marketing, quality management,
as well as organising, preparing and serving food. Graduates would be
eligible to be members of the Institute of Hospitality and Healthcare.
NOTE: BOLD type indicates TAFE component.
