Why did you choose Delaware? I chose Delaware because my home state did not offer a Food Science major, and I heard great things about the teaching and research at the  University of Delaware.

What do you like about your experience so far? As a freshman I was able to study abroad in Costa Rica, and that was one of the most amazing things in my life.  I love being part of the Food Science major, because classes are small and there is a lot of interaction among the students and between the professors and students as well.
