Chemistry, Technology and Analysis of Food
Become a real master of food production and development! This specialization will be your cup of tea allowing you to see beyond its basic horizons.
You will learn methods for food engineering and its application in plant and animal food production. Furthermore, you will learn about the influence of technology on chemical compositions, as well as physical, biological, sensory and nutritional characteristics.
Food production is multidisciplinary. You can dive into many scientific areas regarding chemicals, different processes, and the technology used in the production, storage, and the evaluation of food and drink.
We bear in mind that the world is moving forward. Our focus is on innovations in food development. People demand higher quality, better nutrition and higher health requirements, we aim to give it to them. You will explore the topic of sustainability and the use of food waste, the development of food enriched with bioactive substances and antioxidant properties. The use of lesser consumed foods such as edible flowers and insects, fruit, non-traditional cereal and mushrooms. Innovative packaging is explored as well.
In short, we keep nothing under wraps when it comes to the present and future of food production and development.
