There are two colleges in the USA that have distinguished degree programs for culinary and baking and pastry arts: the Culinary Institute of America and Johnson & Wales University. These schools give both AS and BS degrees in cooking -- well, really, at the level that they are operating you can't just call it 'cooking" can you?

A big advantage of these schools over many of the
"culinary arts" programs at non-degree schools is that CIA and J&W teach not only cooking, but also accounting, sanitation, management and all the other things you need to do to run a restaurant or other food service establishment. Your culinary eduation is spread out over two years or even four years rather than a few months, so you get exposure to many different cuisines from a wide selection of tops chefs, and your college friends are all just as insane about cooking as you are.

You can get an Associate degree in culinary and then go on to get a BS or even an MS in Hospitality Management. That way you can be the boss of the place and plan and run everything, rather than just being someone else's kitchen slave that they are making money off. In the Food Service industry it is hard to make a decent paying career if you only are a cook and you are not a Food Service professional.

Good luck, and Bon Appetit!
