    I love seeing someone who looks like me in the same industry. I have been actively working as a Food Scientist/Product Developer for over 5 years and I have never met another black woman who does what I do. I always knew there were more of us out there and I am so happy to finally see it! Thank you for telling your story and inspiring more young woman of color ❤️.

    Thank you! I had no idea if I should study at my city's uni in the UK which is ranked 4th in the whole of UK for food science. Now I realise this might be something I'd enjoy. I really want to go to the USA and get a job for it, but I am just unsure how to.

    hi, im in my last semester of BS and finally feel like i want to study food science for MS. im a chemistry major right now and i was wondering if i can get accepted to food sci courses. i do know that some unis take in students from chemistry backgrounds but some only have mentioned "food and related degrees". so is it at all possible to get in unless they have clearly mentioned that they're not accepting other than food sci majors

    • @Imaslife
      @Imaslife  2 роки тому

      Hi Ang, it is totally possible to study food science for your MS degree. A Chemistry background is actually really good for entering the field. You should inquire about what those Universities consider their “related degrees” to be. I can guarantee Chemistry will be one of them.
