The MSc in Food and Water Security is an innovative interdisciplinary course which focuses on the scientific, economic, social and political factors that affect the secure production and distribution of food and water throughout the world. Drawing on three complementary academic disciplines, this MSc trains and contributes to significant advances to the way in which food and water security is achieved across the technical, environmental and social spectrum. Effective food and water security is contingent upon all people in a given area having access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food and an adequate supply of clean water. Though in the developed western world such factors remain relatively stable, the same cannot be said in relation to the developing world. This issue, coupled with the ever increasing size of the global population and predicted climate change, makes meeting the world’s demand for food and water one of the most important challenges of the 21st century. The MSc in Food and Water Security is a response to this issue. It is the result of a collaborative interdisciplinary effort by Aberystwyth University’s world class academic departments: the Institute of Biological, Environmental and Rural Sciences (IBERS), the Institute of Geography and Earth Sciences (IGES) and the Department of International Politics. This multidisciplinary approach means that we will be able to view the issue of food and water security through three unique conceptual lenses and draw on these ideas to form a comprehensive understanding of this emerging field of research and development.
