Modules

We'll teach you about biochemistry and physiology, to develop your scientific understanding of food. Fundamentals in Food Science and Nutrition covers the functional properties of food and the impact this has on diet. Learn about the importance of sustainable food production and how we can achieve this through the supply chain. In the second year, you get a detailed understanding of process engineering. You will follow the whole process from the ingredients used to the final packaged food. You'll develop skills in sensory evaluation. Using techniques, you'll understand how to test consumer acceptance of new products. You'll study technical, scientific and engineering concepts in food spoilage, food preservation and food quality. In the final year you will carry out a unique research project supervised one-on-one by our academic team. You'll deepen your understanding of microbial methods and the use of data. You'll study food flavour, looking at aroma, taste and texture perception. You'll work as a team to develop a new product to present to your peers and industry.
