This course is for students who are passionate about food policy and are open to challenging their own assumptions. We want you to graduate from this Masters with a more disciplined and rigorous approach so you can be more effective in pursuing your passions within the food domain. This programme we explore how policy influences the trajectory of food not just from field to fork but across time and territory. The MSc in Food Policy is about analyzing, researching and informing the future of food policy from the local to global scale. The ways in which we produce, process, distribute, market, prepare and consume food have important consequences for our health and that of the planet. This Masters promotes genuine interdisciplinary because we think you need to look at the subject from all angles to make the most holistic evaluation. It draws on social sciences (sociology, politics, economics, anthropology, psychology) as well as health sciences and epidemiology. We look at the latest food policy debates and place them in a historical context. For example, our alumni run NGOs and progressive food businesses, work in government and UN agencies, and have established great careers in health advocacy, journalism and academia. During this course students will also achieve PgCert and PgDip awards.
