Johnson County Community College - Kansas State University Agreement
Kansas State University and Johnson County Community College (JCCC) offer a distance program that allows students to earn an Associate of Applied Science degree in Food and Beverage Management at JCCC, and then to transfer the majority of those credits to K-State towards the completion of a Bachelor of Science in Food Science.
Food Science Degree Option through Distance Education
K-State offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Food Science through distance education.

The curriculum balances fundamental principles and practical applications of food science within a flexible program that permits students to tailor their education to personal career goals.
