If any of you are interested in finding out about the University of Gastronomic Sciences in the Emilia-Romagna (Parma) and Piemonte (Bra) please read on.
Co-founded in 2003 by Slow Food and the Italian regions of Piedmont and Emilia-Romagna, the University's innovative approach is to create a new understanding of gastronomy, linking the act of eating with the act of producing, along with all the phases in between. Four programs at two Italian campuses follow a multidisciplinary learning model, merging science with humanities, sensory training with communications, classroom study with field seminars (including travel to five continents).
Slow Food Los Angeles welcomes David Szanto, the North American representative of the University of Gastronomic Science, to Los Angeles for an information session at the UCLA Art|Sci Center + Lab at CNSI.
