Patricia Unung

I am an EDCP Ph.D student with specialty in Home Economics Education. My B. Sc. (Ed.) and M. Sc. (Ed.) in Home Economics Education respectively, were obtained from the University of Uyo, Nigeria. The onset of my career path began with tutoring a primary class for a term in Monef kiddies school after my first degree, with progression in subsequent term to teach Home Economics at Monef High school for four years, doubling as boarding mistress in same school. After my Masters degree Award in 2014, I took on a Home Economics lecturing appointment same year in the Faculty of Education at the University of Uyo. I continued in same career until I had admission to pursue a PhD program at the University of British Columbia. I have nine publications and I’m familiar with case-studies, extended literature and survey researches, independent and related t- tests, Pearson product moment correlation, linear regression, chi-square and simple percentages analyses. My research interests are on nutrition and health, food education, healthy food consumption, indigenous foods, decolonization of foods and nutrition curriculum, sustainability and foods, inclusion and foods, food sovereignty, and food related issues.  I am excited to study at UBC.
