Course description
The course aims at training professionals who are able to work confidently in areas of food sciences, such as technology, engineering, microbiology, chemistry and sustainability.
Joint initiative with renowned partner universities:
After the first year, you can choose among four different profiles:
- Innovation and Authenticity of Wines (offered at unibz);
- Food Quality and Management (offered at University of Udine);
- Nutrition Sciences (offered at University of Parma);
- Food Chemistry (offered at University College of Cork, Ireland).
The last learning track is offered in partnership with the University College Cork, Ireland. Students will have the opportunity to spend up to two semesters in one of these European partner institutions.
The programme is supported by industries belonging to AssoImprenditori Alto Adige - sezione Alimentari - and Südtiroler Bauernbund - Unione Agricoltori e Coltivatori Diretti Sudtirolesi. This partnership will allow students to write their research thesis with joint tutorship from both the university and the food industry.
The course provides students with the tools to pursue a career as a consultant or to work in managerial roles, mainly in the food industries, and in companies that link the food supply chain, from manufacturing to storage and distribution, including large-scale retailers, and public and private centres dedicated to planning, managing and improving processes. Our graduates design and innovate all food processes and products to guarantee and enhance the sensory, nutritional and sustainable quality of the food chain.
