As the first master’s degree in the US devoted to food scholarship, the Food Studies MA combines approaches from the humanities and social sciences to prepare you to analyze cultural, political, economic, environmental, and geographic approaches to food within local, urban, and global contexts.
Our mission is to teach you how to examine the ways in which individuals, communities, and societies produce, distribute, and consume food. Given the University’s dynamic New York City location, your investigations of these topics will focus on cities as the center of flows of people, produce, and media products.
Students in the Food Studies MA develop a range of skills, including:
- How to apply an interdisciplinary approach to understand the cultural, political, and economic aspects of the food system
- How to discuss with fluency issues related to food sovereignty, sustainability, ethics, and culture
- How to assess policies that shape the food landscape, addressing questions of equity and preserving cultural values
Graduates of the Food Studies MA find jobs in all areas within the food industry:
- Publishing (magazines, newspapers, online sources)
- Public relations (restaurants, food lobby groups, cookbooks, food organizations)
- Marketing (for restaurants, celebrity chefs, cookbooks, organizations)
- Nonprofit work (education, food/hunger advocacy groups)
- Food operations (wine importers/distributors, restaurants, retail)
- Local and national governmental (city government, federal government, food regulations, relations between industry and government)
