The University of Reims organizes a comprehensive course for professional students and provides in-depth knowledge of taste and gastronomy.

The Hautes Etudes du Goût offer a global approach to foods and beverages. We use a three-pronged historic, scientific and economic view to allow our students to become experts in the field of gastronomy.

We offer various classes, given by experts, including “The psychology of taste”; “Comparative biology of food and anthropology of taste”; “Molecular gastronomy” (by Hervé This); “Sensorial marketing”

Gastronomy course: pedagogical meals and workshops

As a last step of the training for our students, the Hautes Etudes du Goût organize different pedagogical meals and workshops (about medieval gastronomy, wine and champagne food pairings, etc.), as well as a visit to the biggest wholesale market in the world for fresh products (with Guy Chemla, Professor at the University of La Sorbonne-IV).
