Food Science and Engineering

In this programme you acquire expertise regarding the equipment and processes involved in the processing of food, combined with a thorough understanding of the biogenesis of raw materials and their microbiological ecology. You learn to develop appropriate food formula and processing techniques that allow for product-specific processing conditions in automated production processes using in-line sensor technology. The development of new technologies for the production of food products that meet consumer expectations as well as individual nutritional requirements, basic research concepts and transfer into new technological approaches will form the core of your studies.
