We hope you’ve added a new city to venture to with some of the most popular cuisines and restaurants! At GCU, we have an appreciation for all types of cuisines — from baklava to masala dosa and everything in between.
We know busy college students need fuel to keep going, which is why we encourage our students to try new ethnic foods and feature diverse dining options on campus. You can try options like Italian, Mexican, American and more at several eateries around campus! We also promote healthy eating with on-campus options like Panera Bread and Pita Jungle. Or, if you want to take your healthy lifestyle to the next level, consider becoming a food scientist by earning the BS in Nutritional Science degree to help guide others on their own healthy lifestyle.
At GCU, we offer a wide range of majors and programs so you can accomplish your career goals. Interested in the food industry? We offer a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality and Tourism Management so you can work in hotels, restaurants and other venues.
