Sociology

Business & Social Sciences

Dr. Mark Bauermeister received his doctorate in Sociology from Iowa State University (’14). My specialization has mainly examined social psychological factors for developing and maintaining sustainable practices in local food system networks. My love and passion for food systems stems from his upbringing in the Midwest, where I lived and worked on my family farm for many years in Nebraska. This passion also led me to working with local communities in the Bay Area, such as Oakland, and Marin County, where I partnered with organizations to develop sustainable food systems.
