Why interested in IAD: |
|
IAD offers students the opportunity to examine food systems in a multi-disciplinary way, and attracts students with a wide variety of backgrounds and experience. I’ve appreciated the chance to look at food systems from both social and natural science perspectives, and from the viewpoint of production and consumption. In addition, California and UC Davis are great places to be to study agricultural issues. |
