Master of Science in Food Technology in Belgium 2021

The general objective of the Master of Science in Food Technology is to provide a multi-disciplinary and specialized professional education in food technology, with special emphasis on postharvest and food preservation engineering on the one hand and food science and technology on the other.

After graduation you are equipped to become a food technology professional with the necessary technical and managerial knowledge, skills and attitudes to successfully contribute to solving problems related to food security. The programme focuses particularly on developing countries where food/nutrient security is and will continue to be a major concern and key challenge.

PROGRAMME


The Master of Science in Food Technology (IUPFOOD) (120 ECTS)
consists of four major segments:
• In-depth education segment (60 ECTS) consisting of master
level courses in food science, engineering and food
engineering
• Specialisation segment (17-19 ECTS) consisting of a set of

technology’).
• Elective courses segment (11 – 13 ECTS) consisting of
courses on specific food related subjects.
• Master’s thesis segment (30 ECTS) consisting of an
advanced research topic in the field of food technology.
