This semester, students enrolled in the Introduction to Food Studies Course will be working collaboratively to share what they are learning in class. We invite you to tag along and learn with us! This course provides an introductory overview of the interdisciplinary and dynamic field of food studies. Over the course of the fall semester, we will learn about the production and procurement of food, as well as its place in history, health, and the sciences. We will also examine ethical, cultural, and spiritual meanings of food and their impact on our daily lives and food choices. The course includes a
\nvariety of teaching methodologies, including lectures, class discussions, and field trips in addition to individual and group assignments.<\/p>\n

By the end of the course, students will know more about food systems and food culture<\/strong><\/em>, be able to examine food systems and food culture from multiple disciplines and diverse perspectives<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0 apply different disciplines and methodologies<\/strong><\/em> to address questions of food systems, and ultimately understand the complexity<\/strong><\/em> of food systems questions and why this field of scholarship is so important. We have set lofty goals for this semester and we hope that you will join us on the journey. Keep an eye out for regularly scheduled posts authored by students explaining what they are learning, its impact, and how new information and experiences are shaping their understanding of the food system and their role as eaters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
