At Bilkent University, Department of Tourism and Hotel Management, the name Institut Paul Bocuse has long been associated with excellence in the field of Hospitality Management, Food Service and Culinary Arts.

We are proud to be part of the Alliance by Institut Paul Bocuse involving the world’s top Hospitality, Food Service and Culinary Management schools and universities in four continents.

As the newest member of this leading global network, we believe that the innovative and challenging educational programs of the Alliance will provide a life-changing experience to our students who will have the chance to take theoretical and practical courses from the very best in the industry.

We are very glad that Plekhanov Russian University of Economics with more than 112-year history has become a part of Alliance by Institut Paul Bocuse. Hopefully besides variable opportunities of getting great experience and knowledge for students our collaboration will enable specialists from different countries to exchange ideas and modern technologies.

My experience at Institut Paul Bocuse was very fruitful.

The program not only broadened my knowledge in the culinary world, but it was also an amazing opportunity to meet other people and exchange cultures and traditions. The tips and techniques I learned at the Institut were helpful and made my work in the kitchen a lot easier.

My advice to the next promotion would be to benefit from each and every moment you spend there because these are some of the days you will never forget in your life!
