Study our practice-focused masters in Sustainable Food Systems and gain the specialised skills needed to become a leader in the food sector. Learn how to drive policy and institutional changes in sustainability and climate change to transform local food systems. Climate change is increasingly recognised as the major threat for humanity. Extreme weather events, likely caused by climate change, are already decimating crop yields. We're also battling a biodiversity crisis and a health crisis of obesity and malnutrition, while we're faced with increasing food insecurity due to rising living costs.Many civil society organisations (CSOs), funding bodies and academics are demanding policy and institutional changes to address the inefficiencies of the current food system. To meet these growing demands, our MSc Sustainable Food Systems aims to produce diverse change makers to champion a transformation of the food system. Our masters in Sustainable Food Systems is the only course of its kind in the UK. The content offers a unique focus on food justice and shifting local food systems through community-scale actions. From growth to consumption, you'll learn how to transform complex food systems to achieve sustainable, healthy and accessible outcomes for all. Designed in consultation with external food system stakeholders, you'll study practice-oriented modules with real-world impact. Our content is strengthened by support from the Food Policy Alliance Cymru, which includes a wide range of organisations working across food policy and practice in Wales.
