Detalhes do curso
Programa de Estudos
This course is just one of a series about ‘innovation’. You can sign up to the other courses in this series through the Going to University collection. This course considers the ways in which the food industry has evolved over the past 70 years and has created the industry of convenience we have today. Introduced though a case study from Marks and Spencer, you will see how new innovations have changed the way we shop. You will also consider the issue of food waste; in a world where thousands suffer from malnutrition and starvation you’ll consider the attitudes in your own society to this global problem.
