IFT Emeritus Membership

Emeritus Membership

Stay connected to your science of food community in retirement.

Your love of the science of food doesn’t retire when you do. Neither should your access to the latest research, innovation, and trends or your connection to the science of food community! With an IFT Emeritus membership, you’ll have all the benefits of an IFT Premier membership at a fraction of the price. 

Pricing

$25/year. Section dues, where applicable, are additional and vary by Section.

Who Qualifies?

Emeritus membership is open to any current IFT member who has fully retired from their professional life in a remunerative capacity, including consulting services, and has been a member of IFT for at least 20 years.

Emeritus Membership Benefits

Emeritus members have all the same benefits as an IFT Premier member.
