Overview

The Certificate in Food Studies is a 21-credit-hour, seven-course credential offered through the Department of Anthropology at Memorial University's St. John's campus, examining food beyond nutrition and agriculture to include how it is produced, consumed, and disposed of. Coursework such as Foodways, Global Food Politics, and Food, Food Safety and Health draws on anthropology, folklore, political science, and biochemistry perspectives.
