Food Systems & Society

The Food Systems and Society (FSS) Master of Science program examines concepts, issues, and strategies relevant to social-justice problems in food systems and society. Students develop critical intellectual agency for addressing these problems through coursework and research. In their research each student focuses on a social-justice problem of particular interest to them. The FSS Capstone Research Syntheses in this collection represent their scholarship and its contributions to social justice. (As noted in the entry, some of the documents were produced at another university, prior to when FSS was established at OHSU.)
