EDUCATION
A number of startups have signed up for the
Incuvation Programme, one of which was able
to open a stationery shop at the LCB library with
the help of a local investor.
In March 2019, LCB introduced its Culinary
School, offering the City & Guilds, London
Programme in Food Preparation and Cooking.
Recognised by employers all around the world,
the programme is ideal for candidates ranging
from those new to the kitchen to experienced
professionals. This programme covers the main
elements of food preparation and specialist
patisserie knowledge and skills. The courses
are available full-time for both day and evening
class study mode.
In February 2020, LCB added four more
undergraduate degree courses by UoC. Noting
the gap in progression for its students pursuing
hospitality, LCB now provides degree courses
in events and festival management, as well as
international tourism management.
LCB also expanded the range of computing
degree options by introducing Applied
Computing and Software Engineering. All of
LCB’s Chester degree courses are available in
full-time for both day and evening class study
mode.
In January 2020, LCB launched its LCB Sports
Centre, making LCB the rst ever private college
to have its own sports centre. LCB has given
the Student Council Sports Department the
opportunity to manage the sports centre and
is located at the college carpark opposite First
Emporium, Batu Satu. It is free for all students
and staff and also available for the public to
rent.
LCB constantly work closely with many leading
industries in Brunei to provide students with
opportunities to learn and observe real industry
experiences. Within the same year, the
college tied close relations with several well-
established companies to be corporate partners
with Progresif, BMW Brunei, MINI Brunei and
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Brunei. LCB has
now produced 42 First-class honour achievers
since 2017 with 5,023 graduates since it was
established in 2003.
The college recently hit another milestone as
the rst private institution in the country to
provide postgraduate programmes with its
MSc International Finance, MSc Management
and MSc Advanced Computer Science. LCB’s
new master’s degree courses were launched in
February 2021 and classes are in the evening to
accommodate working students.
