MSc is the abbreviation for Master of Science, which is a postgraduate degree you can choose to work on after finishing a bachelor's program. This degree is often found in the realm of science and technology.

What is an MSc in Food Technology? This degree looks at the tools and technologies used in producing, storing, distributing, and preparing food. Any of these areas can be the focus of your degree, or you can focus on the entire cycle of a particular food group, such as beef or corn. You can expect to learn about food chemistry and biology, as well as food safety and regulations.

You may gain certain skills during this program, such as analytic skills, communication, and an eye for detail. Good communication is useful in all your private and professional relationships, while analysis and attention to detail can help your productivity.

To attain an MSc in Food Technology, expect to seek funding or pay for some costs on your own. Some expenditures include books, registration, travel, and duration of study. You can contact your chosen school in advance to get estimates on some of these numbers.

A degree in food technology can prepare you for a career in different areas of food production, distribution, and management. In production, you can search for the job titles of food technologist, product development scientist, and technical brewer. In distribution and management, you could apply for a job as a quality manager or regulatory officer. There are also positions in marketing that require knowledge of food technology to get the word out about new processes and information about nutrition.

The technology behind food production and distribution is so important that multiple schools offer courses and degrees in this subject. Search for your program below and contact directly the admission office of the school of your choice by filling in the lead form.

Food is fundamentally different from other goods: It consists of (parts of) organisms that were alive or still are. In addition to the higher complexity of its composition and the variation in its starting materials, this results in a greater risk of variability during production, transport, and storage. How do we supply as many people as possible in the most sustainable ways with high-quality, healthy food? You will deal with this and similar questions in the master’s programme "Food Quality and Safety". -

The food sector is essential to ensure the quality and development of society. Despite the recent food systems developments, nowadays great challenges are approaching. Examples of these are the 2030 Agenda, issued by the UN with 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) since developments and sustainability are currently on a collision route, and the COVID-19 pandemic. By 2050, the world will need 60 percent more food, and with the drop in productivity levels, it is unlikely that this goal will be achieved, at least if there is no change to the current food system. In this sense, it is necessary to create development and innovation strategies to increase agricultural and food production sustainably, improve global supply chains, decrease food losses and wastes, decrease environmental impact, save energy and ensure safe and nutritious food for all. -
