Loyola University New Orleans’ College of Arts and Sciences proudly announces a new interdisciplinary food studies program. Beginning fall 2017, Loyola students can pursue a major in Food Studies designed around food policy, commerce and culture. Loyola’s program will be the first undergraduate Food Studies major in Louisiana.
The Food Studies major combines interdisciplinary Food Studies courses with classes from history, sociology, the natural sciences, environmental studies, and other fields. The program aims to teach students about the complex web of relationships that bring food to the plate.
