TOGÜ Mutfak Eğitim ve Üretim Tesisi & Aşçılık Programımız Uygulamalı Eğitimde (2+2 Eğitim Modeli) Örnek Model Oluyor

The TOGÜ Culinary Education and Production Facility, operating within our university, attracts attention with the practical training opportunities it offers to students of the Culinary Arts Programme in the Hotel, Restaurant and Catering Services Department of our Vocational School. The facility embodies our university's vision of ‘student-centred and practice-based education,’ enabling students to develop their professional skills in a professional kitchen environment.

A Strong Learning Environment Supported by Practical Training

Students in the Culinary Arts Programme of the Hotel, Restaurant and Catering Services Department at our Vocational School have the opportunity to apply the knowledge they gain in theoretical classes at the TOGÜ Kitchen Training and Production Facility. The facility offers a wide range of activities, including pastry and bread production, sourdough and gluten-free products, and chocolate production. Students gain experience working in a real production kitchen with professional equipment, learning work discipline and industry standards first-hand.

A Sector-Integrated Process with the 2+2 Education Model

The 2+2 education model implemented in the Culinary Arts Programme of our Vocational School's Hotel, Restaurant and Catering Services Department plays a significant role in preparing students for working life.

• During the first year, both theoretical and practical courses are offered over two semesters.
• In the second year, students gain direct industry experience by undertaking vocational training in businesses.

This model not only helps students develop their culinary skills but also enables them to observe work processes and understand the dynamics of the business world at an early stage.

Leading the Way in Applied Education at Our University

The TOGÜ Culinary Education and Production Facility is one of the strongest indicators of the importance that Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University and our Vocational School place on applied education. Our university and vocational school aim to ensure that students are stronger, more confident and better equipped in the post-graduation employment process. In this regard, we place great importance on expanding applied education areas, strengthening industry partnerships, and training students in real-world work environments.

Qualified Personnel Sought by the Industry Are Being Trained

Thanks to TOGÜ's Culinary Education and Production Facility, students are developing their professional skills and quickly adapting to the current needs of the industry. In this context, culinary students become qualified personnel sought by the industry upon graduation.

This structure, strengthened by our university's applied education approach, creates a significant advantage for all students aiming for a professional career in gastronomy.
