专业概况

在这里学什么？

Food science involves the application of science and technology to food product manufacture, storage, and distribution to consumers. Food scientists are especially concerned with food safety, nutritional values, managing food quality, food plant management, and development of new products and processes. They are employed by manufacturers and distributors of food products; by chemical, packaging, and other industries that supply goods and services; by colleges and universities in teaching and research; and by government agencies concerned with food regulations and the health and well-being of the general public.

Food science is the application of chemistry, microbiology, nutrition, and engineering to the manufacture of safe, nutritious, and tasty food. The major has a strong basis in the sciences, especially chemistry, and applies that knowledge to solving practical problems in food processing. The hands-on major has students working in labs and small-scale processing facilities to put their learning into action.
