Home Economics

Home economics, or family and consumer sciences, is today a subject concerning cooking, nutrition, housekeeping, personal finance, personal wellness, and consumer issues. In the past, it was mainly just about cooking and housework.Home economics courses are offered around the world and across multiple educational levels. Historically, the purpose of these courses was to professionalize housework, to provide intellectual fulfillment for women, and to emphasize the value of "women's work" in society and to prepare them for traditional gender roles.
