The Department of Food Science is housed in Stocking Hall

Welcome to the Cornell Department of Food Science web site.The faculty, staff, and students in our Department are members of a large interdisciplinary team of scientists at Cornell who are working together to improve the wholesomeness and availability of food for the world's population. This team includes people affiliated with several departments from across the University that have joined together as members of the Cornell  Institute of Food Science (CIFS). Students at Cornell enjoy the combined advantages offered by the applied programs of a major land grant university and the intellectual rigor and stimulation that characterize a prestigious Ivy League institution, all on the same beautiful campus.
