In light of the International Relations plan of the Faculty of Tourism and Hotel Management, Pharos University in Alexandria for the Fall semester 2021/2022, which aims to enrich the academic part of the Faculty’s students, Dr Roisin Burke delivered a virtual lecture titled “Molecular Gastronomy”. The lecture provided our students with valuable insights and up-to-date information about this interesting topic. The faculty extends its sincere thanks and appreciation to TU Dublin for the distinguished academic experience and looks forward to continuing this ongoing series of guest lectures
The MG news from The Dublin Institute of Technology is very good :
This academic year has been very successful for the undergraduate and postgraduate modules in Molecular Gastronomy.
The numbers of students taking the undergraduate module doubled from approximately 16 to 32 and we timetabled a second class to accommodate the numbers. The group included Erasmus students from Wageningen University and Food Innovation and Culinary Arts students from DIT.
The optional postgraduate module in Molecular Gastronomy also had an increase in participant numbers from 9 to 15. The participants successfully produced a variety of Note by Note dishes.
Two Ph.D researchers have commenced their studies and Molecular Gastronomy will be central to their work. A new state of the art research facility opens in DIT next month and will facilitate Molecular Gastronomy research.
Our new programme, the B.Sc. (Hons) in Culinary Science, is commencing in September of this year.
