The vision

Metropolitan Community College´s Institute for the Culinary Arts will stand as one of the leading and most affordable culinary education programs in the United States. More than 1,000 students per year will be educated as managers, chefs, Culinologists™, bakers and culinarians, and the continuing education needs of the greater Omaha restaurant industry will be met locally.

Positioned at the new entrance to the Fort Omaha Campus, the Institute for the Culinary Arts and the Merle and Joy Swanson Conference Center will serve as a central gathering place and beacon to the community.

As this vision is fulfilled and the Institute for the Culinary Arts achieves increasing national prominence, Metropolitan Community College will extend its distinguished tradition of education, community-building and workforce development through a revitalized Fort Omaha Campus — a neighborhood anchor for North Omaha.
