What majors does food science and engineering include?

The specialties included in the food science and engineering category are as follows:

I. Occupation

* * * Including 12 undergraduate majors: food science and engineering, food quality and safety, food engineering, dairy project, wine-making engineering, grape and wine engineering, food nutrition and inspection education, cooking and nutrition education, food safety and inspection, food nutrition and health, edible fungi science and engineering, wine-making engineering.

II. Introduction to Food Science and Engineering

It is an undergraduate major in ordinary colleges and universities, belonging to food science and engineering. The basic study period is four years, and I have obtained a bachelor's degree in engineering or agriculture. Based on food science and engineering science, this major studies food nutrition and health, process design and social production.

The discipline of food processing, storage and food safety and hygiene is an important part of life science and engineering science, and it is an important bridge connecting food science and industrial engineering. The major of food science and engineering aims to cultivate talents who can engage in production and marketing management, technology development, scientific research, education and teaching in food science and engineering and related fields.

With the increasingly serious food crisis caused by the world population expansion, the arrival of the era of large-scale industrialization in the food field and people's increasing concern about food nutrition and hygiene, food science and engineering majors are playing an increasingly important role in the fields of engineering design, nutrition and health, safety inspection and supervision and management of food industry.
