Education


Training based on multidisciplinary research that serves the hospitality, catering and culinary arts trades


The theses are driven by three objectives: education, science and real world application.

EducationPhD students are enrolled in a local, national or international university doctoral school (depending on the project) and they work on a thesis within a specific scientific discipline. The issue examined in each thesis originated from an operational or societal question and the work aims to advance scientific knowledge, as well as to propose practical applications.
The doctoral students are supervised by one of the Institute’s researchers and an academic director and they benefit from the expertise of an ad hoc steering committee consisting of researchers and professionals.

Thanks to a solid 3-year program featuring various training activities, the doctoral students are trained to perform research, manage projects and communicate scientific findings. While maintaining a fully multidisciplinary vision, they are able to acquire mastery of various different concepts and techniques. They perform experiments at the Institut Paul Bocuse or conduct studies at partner establishments (hotels, school cafeterias, hospitals, nursing homes).
