Dear Students,
Welcome to this Food Engineering module, organized into two core units: Food Science and Food Technology.
Throughout the course, you will develop a strong foundation in the composition, properties, and behavior of food, as well as the scientific and engineering principles applied to maintain quality, enhance safety, and develop value-added food products. You will engage with topics such as food chemistry, microbiology, preservation methods, quality assurance, safety standards, and innovations driving the modern food industry.
Assessment for this module totals 100 marks, distributed as follows:
• Continuous Assessment: 60 marks, including CATs, assignments, laboratory work, field activities, and practical reports.
• Final Examination: 40 marks.
I look forward to a collaborative, engaging, and enriching learning experience with you.
