摘要

对训练有素的粮食系统人才的需求量很大,粮食系统教育计划也在高等教育中激增。然而,这些项目往往难以充分体现粮食系统领域的跨学科范围,部分原因在于传统学术结构的限制。在此,我们将对美国现有的粮食系统教育项目进行盘点,以展示其地理分布和学科背景的广度。同时,我们还对两个地理位置相近、互补性极强的项目进行了案例研究,一个是土地赠予大学的项目,另一个是公共卫生学院的项目。虽然这两个项目在实现全面跨学科性方面面临挑战,但它们的配对展示了通过机构间合作增强跨学科性的绝佳机会。我们需要更多成功的跨机构合作食品系统教育模式。外部资金的投入将有助于这一领域的发展,用于概念验证模式、促进不同学科项目之间的学习网络,以及打击个别项目以牺牲质量、稳定性或对不同核心优势价值的欣赏为代价,努力 "包揽一切 "的任务蠕变现象。

A call for collaboration among food systems programs in higher education to train the future workforce
A well-trained food systems workforce is in high demand, and food systems education programs are proliferating in higher education. However, these programs often struggle to embody the full interdisciplinary scope of the field of food systems, in part due to the limitations of traditional academic structures. Here, we present an inventory of existing U.S. food systems educational programs which showcases the breadth of their geographic distribution and disciplinary contexts. We pair this with a case study of two geographically proximal, highly complementary programs, one at a land grant university and one within a school of public health. While the individual programs face challenges in achieving full interdisciplinarity, their pairing showcases that striking opportunities exist to augment interdisciplinarity through inter-institutional collaboration. More models of successful inter-institutional collaborative food systems education are needed. Growth in this area would be aided by external funding for proof-of-concept models, fostering learning networks across disciplinarily distinct programs, and fighting the mission creep of individual programs striving to “do it all” at the expense of quality, stability, or an appreciation for the value of diverse core strengths.
