Wellness and Health Inspired Student Kitchens are a vetted resource for hands-on nutrition programming for the San José State University community. This program encourages people to take “WHISKS” in the kitchen and gives members of the community the tools needed to promote healthy food behaviors and establish healthy relationships with food. WHISK recruits and trains SJSU nutrition students to lead our programming providing additional practical application opportunities to complement required academic coursework.
Students who would like to become a WHISK Ambassador can submit an application on the Join Our Team webpage.
To request to host a WHISK event for SJSU students, staff, or faculty, please visit the Request a Workshop webpage.
