Program overview
A four year route opening with a foundation year, covering study and hospitality fundamentals before three years of culinary industry management.
London has one of the largest restaurant markets in Europe, which makes part time kitchen work alongside study genuinely available here.
Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Culinary Industry Management with Foundation Year is taught at the University of West London, a UK university with degree awarding powers. Because the culinary management foundation route is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after the culinary management foundation route ends, or three years for a doctorate. To claim it after the culinary management foundation route you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. One limit applies to the culinary management foundation route as to every taught course in Britain: the rules introduced in January 2024 stop taught students bringing a spouse or children as dependants, so the culinary management foundation route cannot support a family move.

The English requirement is IELTS 5.5 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the culinary management foundation route is recorded at GBP 16,750 a year. UWL charges no application fee, so applying for the culinary management foundation route costs you nothing, and no scholarship is recorded against it. the culinary management foundation route lists four entry windows a cycle. Apply Study Visa manages the the culinary management foundation route application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.
