Le Cordon Bleu announces a scholarship for the 2018 Hautes Études du Goût programme

Paris, February 2018 – Le Cordon Bleu, the leading Global Network of Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management Institutes, announces the launch of a scholarship for one of its prestigious programmes, the Hautes Études du Goût (HEG). The €3 750 scholarship will cover half of the training programme fees. Applications are now open.

HEG, a short training programme dedicated to the world of taste and gastronomy, in which culture, science, sociology and history are intertwined, is taught by Le Cordon Bleu and Reims Champagne-Ardenne University. The training programme is taught by university professors and renowned researchers (INRA, CNRS, Collège de France) as well as by gastronomy and food industry professionals.

Reaching beyond expertise and working methods in the gastronomy profession (journalist, food critic, producer, creator, chef, oenologist…), the Hautes Études du Goût rises to the challenges posed by the changes that are affecting the world today, in the evolution of food production and consumption.

For the next HEG intake, in October 2018, Le Cordon Bleu Paris will host the first part of the training programme. The remainder will take place in Reims, Champagne.
