Welcome to The Culinary Institute of Las Vegas, a division of The Art Institute of Las Vegas. Located just seven miles away from the excitement of the Las Vegas strip, The Culinary Institute takes advantage of its downtown views and the booming Las Vegas restaurant scene, tourist attractions, shopping, entertainment and famed luxury hotels.
What do you like to do in the kitchen? If you have a passion for food, you already know how exciting cooking is. Anything is possible. There are countless dishes out there yet to be invented, and classic meals to be given new life with your own personal touch.
Cooking takes precision, practice and an abundance of creativity. A good cook understands how to create delicious meals with the right ingredients and balance many simultaneous tasks in the “back of the house,” and a good manager knows how to handle finances, manage employees and ensure that the customers are happy enough in the “front of the house” to want to return again and again.
Some of our students were born with a wooden spoon in their hand, while others simply get a joy out of experimenting in the kitchen. As long as you share a passion for epicurean delights, the culinary programs at The Culinary Institute of Las Vegas will help you evolve your talent – and savor the results. The Culinary Institute of Las Vegas offers the only associate of science and diploma programs in Baking & pastry in Las Vegas.
