Food Scientists apply science and engineering to study the physical, chemical, and biological nature of food. They develop new food products, design food processes, chemically analyze food, and evaluate food safety and sensory quality.
Our mission is to disseminate science-based knowledge of food through student education, to seek, verify, and apply information related to food, and to communicate through professional, scientific, and public outreach programs.
Programs of study leading to both the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in food science are offered in the various fields of interest in the Division of Food Science and Technology.
