Description:George Brown College offers the first four-year Honours Bachelor of Food Studies degree in Canada.

Graduates of these diploma programs may be eligible to enter the third year of the degree upon successful completion of five bridge courses.



Food choices are no longer about what we will have for dinner. Behind those choices are the biggest challenges of our time: How do we address chronic disease, waste, climate change, rapid urbanization, technological change, hunger and inequity? Everyone in the food sector must deal with these challenges and opportunities; this is the world that the next generation of food workers is entering. The Honours Bachelor of Food Studies degree program will bring a new focus on justice and equity, sustainability and health, and a new awareness of how these societal issues can be analyzed and resolved.
