Les objectifs de la formation

The Master of Food Studies and Gastronomy programme enables students to specialise in the area of food. Using a multidisciplinary approach, which focuses on the social anthropology of food, this Master’s aims to specialise students in the understanding of phenomena linked to food (food models in multicultural contexts, obesity, etc.).
This course should therefore enable students and food experts to build or boost their skills in the areas of food research, anthropology and sociology, as well as to gain a better understanding of the different food cultures, food trends and business perspectives. Finally, it provides the keys to understanding sociopolitical issues relating to nutrition and the formulation of public health policies.
