ESPM 197 – Experiential Learning through Engagement in Food Systems will be offered in the fall 2019 semester. Contact the instructor, Kathryn De Master <kathryn.demaster@berkeley.edu>, for details. In addition, please fill out the Engagement in Food Systems Survey. You may return to this form on an ongoing basis to update their responses.
Students should be prepared to develop a project idea with a partner organization in the first month of the fall and spring semester. Students take the lead in cultivating relationships with their community partners.
