PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
This Master's programme, delivered jointly by Oxford Brookes University and the Burgundy School of Business explores the cultural, economic and political influences on the consumption of food and wine. Combining theoretical enquiry with practical insight, this MA examines the consequences of our food and wine choices – both individual and societal; explores the case for ethical models of food and wine production; and challenges conventional attitudes to the consumption of food and wine. It requires students to apply their knowledge within business and cultural contexts, including tourism and hospitality.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
There is a wide range of career opportunities in the food and wine sector including marketing, distribution, consultancy, retail management and journalism. Our study programme provides students with excellent preparation for doctoral studies and careers in teaching in universities.
