Nicknamed both the Orange State and the Sunshine State, Florida has plenty of both - and it's a fun and practical place to study culinary arts and tourism! There are restaurants catering to all different tastes, so culinary students have their pick when it comes to internships, jobs - or everybody's dream; owning their own restaurant.

Specialty dishes include Southern cooking (fried catfish is a favorite), Cajun, Caribbean, Mexican, Oriental…the list goes on forever. That's because Florida is one of the most diverse states in the U.S., lending cultural flair to everything from the nightlife to art festivals. The state's thriving cruise ship industry provides plenty of opportunities for tourism studies students! And hospitality management students couldn't ask for a better laboratory than the many resorts, parks and sprawling retirement villages sprinkled throughout the state. For students in the culinary arts and hospitality industry, it doesn't get much better than Florida!
