Providing engaging experiences for students is central to JMU, a university that strongly believes success requires equal parts intellect and action. Reaching past theory and books, JMU strives to offer hands on learning experiences by drawing from the outside world.
Originally a fit out for an existing gym, this space was developed into JMU’s Teaching Kitchen which incorporates a well lit demonstration area giving students ample space to learn as well as present their work. A contemporary six station lab provides equipped learning areas separated by low walls for the purpose of keeping teams of students well grouped. Available to the students are six stainless steel professional stove ranges, sizeable refrigerators and quality kitchen tools creating a learning environment designed for success.
