Bachelor's degree

Skip several grueling years of apprenticeship and accelerate your exposure to a broad range of experiences in the pastry world by entering our baking & pastry arts bachelor’s degree program at J&W's Providence Campus.

You'll use the most technologically-advanced baking technologies, equipment, utensils and techniques to create your own pastry show pieces — artisan breads, confections, European cakes, sugar sculptures, plated desserts, wedding cakes and chocolate showpieces — and shorten the path to becoming an executive pastry chef or pastry shop owner. Our bachelor program also offers the best students an opportunity to test their skills in national competitions.
