About the Course

Managing a company in the food and beverage industry is a fascinating task. Food and beverage products are so deeply rooted in the culture of most countries that making and selling them is not only a matter of making and selling good and tasty products, but products that nurture people's body, soul, and heart. Given this, it's not difficult to see that the task quickly becomes complex. The objective of this course is twofold: first, we will focus on contemporary challenges that managers and entrepreneurs in food and beverage businesses should be able to face; and second, we will provide models and tools to design and implement appropriate courses of action to satisfy customers and build an advantage over the competition. This course is made up of four modules and an introduction, each exploring one dilemma that food and beverage companies face. You will be presented with a set of video lectures and guest speakers. These lectures combine an accessible introduction to specific topics integrated with interviews of managers and experts that will give precious insights and examples to the participants. To enhance your learning experience with us, we will make a Documentary on the Excellences of the Modena District available for you, which is in a format that we have developed specifically for this course in order to give you the chance to experience first-hand the territory as our on-campus students usually do. Each module is paired with an evaluated quiz and weekly discussion forums to reflect on the variety of the F&B world, its complexity, and the power of the network that we will build together during the course. Successful completion of the quizzes is required for a course certificate as explained in the Grading Policy.

It's not easy, but it shouldn't be. If you go in with the intent to learn with interest in the subject. You will learn a lot. More than I thought I would. I'm a little sad that it is coming to an end.

Really enjoyed this course, found it very in-depth and relevant to the food and beverage industry. My one note would be for some of the links in the last 2 weeks to be updated as they no longer work.

Dear Financial Aid Committee,

My name is Muhammad Adeel Zahid, and I am writing to request financial aid to help me pay for the Food and Beverage Management from Universita Bocconi on Coursera. I am passionate about my educational and career goals and I believe that this course will provide me with the skills and knowledge I need to achieve them.

Unfortunately, my financial situation makes it difficult for me to afford the course certificate fee on my own. I am doing a part-time job in a British Council as a Venue Staff. As a result, I am requesting financial aid to help me cover the cost of the course.

I already complete the course and using the knowledge and skills I gain to improve my career in Hospitality Management. I appreciate your consideration of my application and thank you for the opportunity to apply for financial aid for Certificate of the Course .

Sincerely,

Muhammad Adeel Zahid Khan

I really liked and enjoyed the course over all and the teacher was more than a professional with a very wide and clear vision. There was only one thing that was not very enough for me. I am an example learner and I can honestly say that for other people like me as well that the examples for the topics or titles should have been more and more. Was there no examples? Of course there was and they were quality examples. However I would have been more appreciated if there were more and variety products (not only Wine or Vodka) and more examples. Thank you :)

It's my first Coursera course and I really learned a lot from it. It was worth my time. My concerns are the following:

The course needs to be updated as the examples are now outdated.

Most of the links in the pdf presentations don't work because again they're outdated.

Most of the examples had to do with the alcohol industry whether it was wine, beer etc. I wish there was more variety and less of those.
