Faculty

Food has emerged as a new and vibrant theme in the academic work of an increasing number of University of Oregon faculty and students. Our group includes more than sixty faculty members across twenty-seven departments or programs who are directly engaged with issues related to food and agriculture. These faculty members are conducting cutting-edge research in a wide variety of food topics, are mentoring graduate students on timely and important food-related theses and dissertations, and are also offering creative and significant food-related courses to an eager and growing undergraduate constituency.
