This major is no longer accepting new students. Students who are interested in combining their interest in food and nutritional sciences, economics and business should consider applying for the B.Sc. in Food and Resource Economics program.
Students enrolled in the Food Market Analysis Major will focus on the core of the Food Science Major, and on a core of Economics, Commerce, and Food Resource Economics courses. This will prepare graduates for employment in the food industry with special interest in market analysis aspects. Students wishing to concentrate on certain areas or who are interested in pursuing graduate studies should consult the program advisor.
