Food Science (Minor)

/undergraduate/agriculture-life-sciences/food-bioprocessing-nutrition-science/food-science-minor/

The Food Science minor is designed to provide students with important food science principles and concepts. It should give a competitive edge to individuals seeking employment in the food, pharmaceutical and related industries as a chemist, microbiologist, engineer, nutritionist, business specialist, or technical writer.This minor will provide technical information to improve the student’s knowledge and understanding of food and its manufacture. While a comprehensive coverage of Food Science cannot be accomplished in 15 credit hours, flexibility in developing the minor permits tailoring each program to complement a student’s major. An introductory course ( FS 201 Introduction to Food Science ) is required, but other courses at the 200, 300 and 400 level may be selected build on the basic discipline courses in the student’s major.
