The 1st level master's degree in Philosophy of Food and Wine is intended as the first ever "school" for training skilled communicators equipped to operate in the food and wine sector. Professionals who will be equally at home in businesses within the industry or in the specialised media. The dual aim is to provide in-depth knowledge of the field (i.e. genuine expertise in the sector) and, alongside this, to teach the skills required to create exciting storytelling (a need business are becoming more and more aware of), also including the most appropriate communication strategies.
This project is grounded in the partnership of the Philosophy Faculty of Vita-Salute San Raffaele University, Milan, the Corriere della Sera “Cucina” channel staff, the Italian Signature Wine Academy (ISWA) – which brings together seven of Italy's top wine producers (Allegrini, Feudi di San Gregorio, Fontanafredda, Frescobaldi, Masciarelli, Planeta and Villa Sandi) – and the Intesa Sanpaolo banking group, as well as leading partner companies from the food industry (such as Molino Quaglia) and retail (such as Eataly).
