By amalgamating shared learning with focused networking opportunities, the course will develop transferrable, interpersonal communication skills whilst encouraging creative and critical thinkers who will become life-long learners and advocates for Irish food and international food culture.
The programme will examine the key forces and policies that influence the modern food system by investigating the impact of history on contemporary foodways.
