Course contents

This Master is designed for international students who want to learn about the different dimensions of food and understand how the political, economic, social, cultural and nutritional aspects are connected.

The program addresses the most debated contemporary issues relating to food policy, sovereignty and sustainability, with a particular focus on:

world landscapes of gastronomy, food systems and culinary cultures;
emerging trends and global changes in food systems and cultures resulting from intensive mobilities of people, social imaginaries, ideals, goods and capital;
worldwide, non-Western and decolonized perspectives on food production, distribution and consumption;
the promotion of biodiversity and cultural diversity.

In Italy: UNISG Study Trips are a unique opportunity for our students to investigate the complexity of current food systems in the world by integrating theoretical concepts from the classroom with direct and practical experience in the field.

An integral part of each master program are the three territorial study trips (one in Italy, one in Europe, and the last overseas), designed to allow our students to discover a wide variety of local products and reflect on how they connect to their environmental, economic, and social context.

This is the 360° learning experience: gastronomy defined not only by the flavour, nutritional value, and molecular composition of food, but also an understanding from a socio-cultural, anthropological, and economic perspective derived from their experience in the field. These trips focus on the various phases of food production, from the raw material to the final distribution and communication strategies, of both artisanal and industrial products.

The organization of and planning of the didactic content and travel logistics is managed by the staff of the Tutor Office, who also accompany the students during the trip.
