Comprehensive professional introduction
Perhaps, some people joked that food science and engineering is a professional with physical and mental satisfaction. "Food is the most important thing for the people" is closely related to people's lives in professional research and daily life. The role of feeding it should not be underestimated. Using food science and engineering to study the production, processing methods, technology and equipment of food industry, she is engaged in food production technology and equipment, involving chemistry, physics, agronomy, biochemistry, microbiology, chemical engineering, biochemical engineering, mechanical design, basic engineering, human nutrition, food hygiene, environmental management and engineering disciplines.
Food science and engineering, in order to promote the large-scale food industry, chemical unit operation, development and form of food engineering unit operation are an important aspect of introduction and use. The development direction is automation, the development of food science and engineering, chemical engineering and bioengineering, new packaging methods and equipment, technological upgrading, and the improvement of food packaging performance is closely related to the development of food preservation and shelf life. Improve cooking technology, research aseptic packaging technology and reasonable energy-saving equipment, reduce the cost of frozen food, optimize the operation of food engineering unit, automation and computer application.
Food science and engineering is a young discipline, but in modern society, it has become the main symbol of economic development. Improving the level of civilization and the future development trend is the result of studying and developing genetic technology and developing foods with richer nutrition, more delicious taste and more scientific shelf life. For example, scientists are trying to combine the genes of fish and tomatoes to develop more nutritious varieties. This is really a new field. People have been arguing about the advantages and disadvantages of genetically modified foods, and there is a scientific quantitative analysis. But we believe that this development direction has a good market prospect and social benefits, and can give full play to the imagination in food engineering and production. New varieties of food enrich and beautify our table life.
Many colleges and universities offer specialties, such as Zhejiang University, Beijing Forestry University and Nanjing Agricultural University. Students master food analysis and detection methods. Capacity, process design, equipment selection, grain production, management, technical and economic analysis, grain storage, transportation, processing, preservation, comprehensive utilization of resources and understanding of the dynamic theory of development. Graduates are suitable for food research institutions and design departments, inspection units, food factories and enterprises to engage in design, research, development, production and technical management. Of course, if you don't want to enter a specific production department, university or scientific research institution to engage in teaching and scientific research, although you are likely to fall into poverty, it will be a very rich spiritual life.
Representative of College of Food Science and Engineering? Number: 08 1 40 1.
College of Food Science and Engineering (Food Science and Engineering) Food science and engineering is a typical example of the development of vocational education in colleges and universities of science and engineering. According to the disciplines of the State Science and Technology Commission, basic disciplines such as mathematics, physics, biology, astronomy and chemistry have equal status. Permeability is multidisciplinary, involving many disciplines, such as chemistry, physics, biology, agriculture, machinery, environment, management and so on. Especially since 1950s, with the wide application of computer technology and biotechnology in the food industry, food specialty has become a powerful person. In order to solve the current food crisis.
In fact, when it comes to the history of food processing, it can be considered as a long history, which was formed during the Qingliangang culture period in ancient Jiangnan (about 4500-4000 BC). However, their educational purpose has gone through thousands of years of ups and downs and began to take shape.
The earliest "Six Arts School" of the ancient academy-workshops of ceremony, music, archery, imperial examination education, books and food production, can hardly be said to be frivolous. Later, the Six Arts evolved in four directions: agriculture, medicine and teaching. However, there are also technical schools that teach agronomy in mulberry science and offer a scientific discipline based on sericulture production. However, at that time, there was no formal school education to teach food production and processing technology in the form of "male masters", "ancestral secrets" or "apprentices" folk literary works. For thousands of years, diet education has been an ornament of agricultural education. Floating in the long river of history, until 1927, Cai Yuanpei, the pioneer of education, suggested that the university district system and some agricultural technology schools proposed by the government should be adopted instead of being included in agricultural universities, and agronomy was scheduled to offer higher education in agricultural production and food science.
As an independent professional university, food science basically began to realize vocational education in the second half of the 20th century, with the development of food production technology, senior technicians and process engineers at undergraduate level, first-class talents and knowledge level.
Drawing lessons from the experience of the Soviet Union, the department of science and technology of Nanjing University of Science and Technology was merged into Zhejiang University, Wuhan University, Food College of Jiangnan University of Fudan University, and Agricultural Chemistry and Food Industry of Science and Technology Department of Nanjing University of Science and Technology (such as Wuxi University of Light Industry) for the first time in 1952, which was the first food major enrolled by undergraduate colleges. Then at 1958, it was a professional swap. The newly established Tianjin University of Science and Technology and Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry also began to recruit undergraduate colleges in food science. Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry 198 1 started enrolling students, the first double-class enrollment. /& gt； Now, food science and engineering is a key, which plays different roles in various universities, agricultural universities, light industry, institutions and business schools. The latest professional adjustment implemented by the State Education Commission has expanded the professional caliber and made it more scientific and standardized. Broaden the professional training direction, including food engineering, sugar engineering, food engineering oil engineering, tobacco engineering, food hygiene and quarantine, storage and processing of agricultural products and aquatic products, freezing engineering, bee science, etc. Are our institutions, colleges and universities, China Agricultural University, Tianjin Institute of Light Industry, Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry, Wuxi Institute of Light Industry, Dalian Institute of Light Industry, South China University of Technology, Zhejiang University, Huazhong Agricultural University, China Agricultural University, Shanghai Fisheries University, Tianjin Hospital and Heilongjiang Commercial Hospital all in this respect? The Master of Food was awarded to China Food Fermentation Research Institute, and the Shanghai Spice Research Institute also awarded the Master Training Center of South China University of Technology and the Doctor of Food Science and Engineering of Wuxi University of Light Industry. According to statistics, up to 1993,1075,60 (* * * 76) four-year undergraduate students have been admitted by state organs, institutions of higher learning and 83 food majors, and the enrollment of the remaining three-year or two-year institutions has ended. At present, there are 1.7 million students.
In many colleges and universities, especially mature disciplines, Wuxi Institute of Light Industry has been established, which is unique in fermented food, grain and oil: Zhengzhou Grain Institute (now Henan Polytechnic University) is the largest oil and fat food industry peer in China, and the Zhengzhou light industry professionals trained are the same as the tobacco on the ground, "Huangpu said. Champion of China Sugar Engineering and Technology University. In addition, Southwest Agricultural University and Yunnan Agricultural University are the only professional beekeeping research institutes. Bee students choose food majors according to their own tastes.
Witnessed the growth of a food expert, educator and academic leader, and made their greatest contribution. Let's not forget that they have continued the commitment of Wuxi institutions from generation to generation, and continuously delivered a lot of "fresh blood of fire science" to the food industry. The deeply developed professor of food resource engineering research has made remarkable achievements, teaching food hydrocolloids, food polysaccharides and so on. In the development of our country, the achievements of "teaching" and "learning" of the whole food specialty are gratifying. However, as one of the three pillar industries, the food industry still faces a serious shortage of talents, especially high-level talents. According to incomplete statistics, only 3-4% of employees in China have professional knowledge in the food industry, and have master's and doctoral degrees, and food science and technology talents are scarce. At the same time, there is an imbalance between grain and talents all over the country, and there are many professional grain technologies at the county level, and there are not even a small factory. The ranking of the first industrial output value is commensurate with the breakthrough of the country's industrial sector list. Looking overseas, in western developed countries, the proportion of food-related professional knowledge is more than% of the total number of employees. This is because developed countries attach great importance to growing food. Almost all famous universities, such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Tokyo, University of Wisconsin-Dickinson, and Cambridge Department of Food Science and Nutrition Science, have vigorously developed higher food and vocational education and trained industry technicians.
Looking at the global food industry (including salt mining, food processing and manufacturing, beverage manufacturing and tobacco processing), the leading position of the world industrial turnover has reached 2./kloc-0. 8 trillion US dollars, surpassing the automobile, aerospace, information and other industries. In China, the output value of the food industry more than doubled in 2000, reaching 700 million yuan. On the basis of 1994' s accession to the World Trade Organization, the severe test of the food industry is a rare opportunity.
It is predicted that the world population will increase by 730 billion dollars in the next 20 years, and the sharp increase in one year will make the demand for food inevitable. Convenient, quick-frozen, fresh, healthy, microwave, leisure, children, the elderly, food and healthy drinks and condiments will be popular all over the world, pointing out the direction for food professional education in the food industry.
As a younger generation, the next century will actively participate in this ancient and hopeful team. I think "lettering and sticking to the mouth" is a wise choice.
Analysis of professional employment data
Present situation and trend of employment in five majors
As the saying goes, "Food is the most important thing for the people". Food is the foundation of human survival, reproduction, growth and health. The success or failure of a country is due to its rise and fall in more than 0/00 countries and regions around the world, without any material basis. The government of a country can underestimate the development of food industry, which is directly related to a country and occupies an important position in the national economy, namely, food industry, machinery industry and chemical industry. It also calls on China's three pillar industries, namely, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, food science and technology, as a discipline, such as mathematics and physics, to be inferior to their previous sugar engineering, food engineering, petroleum engineering, tobacco, engineering, agricultural storage and processing, and others. However, according to the latest professional catalogue issued by the Ministry of Education, these majors are unified as "food science and engineering" majors, and the field of food engineering specialty is greatly expanded, which is conducive to cultivating a wider range of modern technical talents with compound caliber in China's food industry and improving the employment competitiveness of its college graduates.
The level of technology and automation is developing towards science. The continuous development and scale of modern food industry, domestic and international competition, technology competition and talent competition are finally reflected in the development of China's food industry, and a large number of university food science and engineering or similar majors have emerged, but most of them are concentrated in light industry colleges, former domestic trade colleges and agricultural colleges, which are universities directly under the Ministry of Education, journals of South China University of Technology and Zhejiang University. In addition, the journal of Tianjin University, science and technology of Dalian University of Technology, light industry, Huazhong Agricultural University, Tianjin University of Commerce, and science and technology of Henan University (Zhengzhou Grain College) also awarded the master's degree in food science in this region? China has basically established an education system to cultivate high-level professional food technology. These graduates are assigned to various departments and countries for information feedback. In addition to continuing education, postgraduate education, studying abroad, universities, research institutes and design units, food science graduates are engaged in education, scientific research and design. The whereabouts are roughly as follows: large and medium-sized food enterprises (including Sino-foreign joint ventures) engaged in scientific and technological development? Management, the company's business management department, engaged in sales business, enterprise management
However, in recent years, the reform of state-owned enterprises and the employment of generally inefficient food graduates in the food industry have suddenly increased the difficulty of university education. Recently, the Ministry of Education announced the employment rate of graduates from Light Industry Agricultural College, the largest operator of 99 food universities, and the overall employment rate was not high. The employment rate of Wuxi University of Light Industry and Northwest University in these two years is less than 70% of agricultural science and technology. It is conceivable that such prestigious schools and other institutions, 45 universities are listed. On the other hand, the same institution, a major in food, such as computer and electronic communication, is also very deserted. Many popular high-tech companies, such as Shanghai Jiaotong University, Sun Yat-sen University, South China University of Science and Technology and other well-known professional employment companies, have received a general notice of probation for outstanding students with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan. In contrast, there are relatively few employment opportunities in the food industry, so many young people are very disappointed with the reduction in treatment. So many young people are full of passion and fantasy. Reflected in further studies and employment, food science cannot recruit high-level candidates and students with the same quality and high status. Students transfer to other majors or cross-majors, and graduate students come from the food industry. With so much food, it is difficult to find the right people to improve their condition. The employment situation is grim, and many popular majors have been opened in light industry and food. This is a vicious circle, which is not conducive to the trend that the food industry shows no signs of improvement.
China Agricultural University said frankly: "To be honest, I don't want to give up my professional study for several years, but what can I do?" ? You see, the vigorous development of the information industry, on the one hand, is the continuous layoffs, in order to improve work efficiency, bankruptcy, merger of food. Do you think I'll leave? "
Food science and engineering has almost become a popular major enrollment, and it is an indisputable fact that employment is more difficult. But what about the sunset concern of food specialty? The answer is obviously no.
First of all, as mentioned above, the food industry is one of the three pillar industries of the national economy and has played an important role. In this country's industrial system, there is no doubt that China is the most populous country in the world, with a population of over US$ 654.38+03 billion, and the demand for food is still great. It is worth mentioning that after 20 years of reform and opening up, the living standards of urban residents and rural residents have been continuously improved, and the proportion of food demand in total expenditure is gradually transitioning. Does the Engel's coefficient of scientific and technological diversity of a single quality of life reflect the latest data showing that food expenditure in cities is 44.5% and 53.4%? Rural areas have reached 40% to 50% of the international average, and the proportion of simple food manufacturing and food processing food industry has been declining. Rich people began to pay attention to health and nutrition, and the potential market was huge. Food enterprises with high technology content and high added value are constantly emerging, and many well-known brands have been made with them. It can be predicted that in the near future, the deep processing business of health food and biological food will have greater development. Graduates with professional knowledge and the courage to explore innovative foods will become the protagonists of these emerging enterprises.
Secondly, in the food industry, the decline in output will inevitably lead to the reform of state-owned enterprises, making it easier to be laid off. In the rapid economic growth and high employment growth, countries that rely on administrative means to allocate resources include high employment and low wage policies, the labor contract system implemented under the planned economy system, and the food industry as a labor-intensive industry, which lacks enterprises that absorb a large number of people to produce and consume products. There are too many redundant constructions, low production efficiency, free and smooth employment choices for graduates in the human resources employment market. In order to better meet the requirements of the market economy of the grain industry and accelerate the reform of the management system of state-owned grain enterprises, a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises actively try and promote the adjustment of ownership structure, adjust and improve the ownership structure, and explore various forms of public ownership. State-owned grain enterprises that have improved their management quality and efficiency have established a competitive mechanism for survival of the fittest, encouraged mergers and standardized bankruptcies, established trans-regional enterprise groups, and have considerable strength in the industry. They have promoted the modern enterprise system, developed and strengthened the knowledge economy and intelligence with science and technology as the driving force, improved the talent incentive mechanism, and accelerated the pace of knowledge updating. "
It is conceivable that with the deepening of reform and the implementation of policies, the eating and employment situation of graduates will be improved.
According to world standards, the circulation order of China's grain market is facing great challenges, but it also brings a historic opportunity to introduce advanced technology and management system on a large scale, providing a stage for graduates in the grain industry to display their talents.
"Science and technology are the primary productive forces". With the progress of science and technology, the food industry is a major reform of the food industry. The future will be the depth and breadth for the food industry to abandon the traditional production and processing mode, high technology content and high added value.
