Why I Chose Food Science

With a degree in Food Science, you can do anything... but I chose to work in the department because of the opportunity to interact with students, faculty and staff who are excited about their studies and research.

What brought me to NC State Deparment of Food Science

I joined the Food Science department as a transfer student from another major. I became interested in the field after talking with food science students and was completely convinced to change majors after talking with faculty members about the opportunities after graduation.
