FS 230 — Food Studies Capstone
This course guides students through completion of the Food Studies Associates program and is required of all majors. The course integrates conceptual learning, skill-building, and experiential learning to enable students to demonstrate strong foundational knowledge about food studies and food systems. Students reflect on key concepts examined in the Food Studies core courses, and draw connections between these concepts, the field based/internship experiences, and students' specific career objectives. By the end of the term, students will write a final paper contextualizing the experiences gained in FS 225 within concepts learned through the Food Studies program; and an e-Portfolio to be used in future applications for employment and other postgraduate opportunities. Students will also give a final presentation about their internship experience in an end-of semester program seminar.
