Introduction to professional nutrition:

food science and engineering

Food science and engineering is an interdisciplinary subject based on chemistry, biology and chemical engineering, which studies the basic theory and applied technology of modern food processing. China's traditional food processing technology has a high position in the world. With the continuous improvement of social civilization, people's desire to improve their quality of life is getting stronger and stronger.

The international competition is unprecedentedly fierce, and the application requirements of modern processing technology in food development and production are constantly improving. At the same time, through the integration of modern processing theory and technology, the concept of traditional food processing technology has been greatly expanded, so the knowledge structure of graduates of this major can be widely adapted to various processing enterprises and related administrative, business, scientific research, circulation and other departments.

Employment orientation: For various foods or other industrial products, through modern bioengineering technology, I am engaged in various animal and plant products or other industrial products with biomaterials as raw materials for modern processing enterprises and relevant state organs, universities, scientific research institutions, customs, commodity inspection, health and epidemic prevention, environmental protection, intellectual property protection and other departments.

Main courses: meat technology, dairy technology, fruit and vegetable processing technology, soft drink technology, baking food technology, modern food processing technology principle, food sensory evaluation, food packaging science, food machinery, food factory design, etc.

Degree awarded: Bachelor of Engineering

The main schools are: China Agricultural University, Jiangnan University, Nanchang University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Northeast Agricultural University Business School, Southwest University, South China Agricultural University, Hangzhou, Shenyang Agricultural University, Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry, Nanjing Agricultural University, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, Harbin University of Commerce, South China University of Technology, etc.

Food quality and safety

Based on life science and food science, this major studies the relationship between food nutrition, safety and health, food nutrition guarantee and food safety, hygiene and quality management. It is an important part of food science and preventive medicine, and an important bridge connecting food and preventive medicine. Through the management and control of food production and processing, the nutritional quality and hygienic quality of food are guaranteed and human health is promoted.

The guarantee of food nutrition and safety mainly depends on the comprehensive and systematic quality management of food production, which extends nutrition and food safety from the past supervision and management to many fields including food production, food nutrition, food safety and food quality control, and plays an increasingly important role in various fields of life science and food science.

Main courses: general biology, food microbiology, basic biochemistry, human function (human physiology, biochemistry, pathophysiology), nutrition, food hygiene, food chemistry, food technology, food safety, food quality inspection and quality control technology, food microorganism inspection technology, food science, food enterprise management, etc.

Employment direction after graduation: food hygiene supervision departments at all levels in China, product planning and design, management, food safety and quality control and management departments of food enterprises, community nutrition and food safety services, nutrition catering industry, teaching and scientific research units engaged in food production in catering departments, nutrition and food safety management, public nutrition, etc.
