William Angliss Institute VIC
Type of institution: TAFE Institute
Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 01505M
Our postgraduate programs in food systems and gastronomy investigate why food is so central to our social and cultural lives. You will examine how food production, processing, distribution and consumption impact on ecological integrity and human health and wellbeing, and what political, economic and cultural forces shape food on its journey from paddock to plate. Students of the Graduate Diploma of Food Systems and Gastronomy will apply their enhanced understanding of food production, distribution, policy and consumption to issues of contestation within the food system including social inequity, urban and regional land-use and planning, local economies and citizen health and wellbeing. Particular emphasis will be given to examining these issues through a gastronomic lens with a focus on historical, cultural, material and philosophical perspectives.
