Food Science B.S.A., Food Science Concentration
Food Science B.S.A., Food Science Concentration
Nine-Semester Degree Program
Because the Food Science Concentration requires an internship one summer, students cannot enroll in an Eight-Semester Program. See the Eight-Semester Degree Policy for requirements of the eight-semester programs.
