The Culinary Arts Institute offers a unique combination of academic studies, practical training with renowned chefs from around the globe, and management skills coaching to lay the foundations for a successful culinary career for our graduates.
The Culinary Arts Institute (CAI) is an academic school of Varna University of Management that encompasses the undergraduate programmes in culinary arts offered by the leading business university in Eastern Europe.
We are the first in Eastern Europe to offer recognised culinary education at a university level, and even more: our graduates have the opportunity to earn two degrees upon successful completion of our programmes – a Bulgarian and a British Bachelor’s degree.
We are located in the beautiful city of Varna, Bulgaria, and take pride in our multicultural community of chef instructors, students, and partners from over 50 countries around the world.
