Food Science applies microbiology, chemistry, engineering, and nutrition to the study of food composition and behavior, and how these are affected by production methods, processing, and preparation in order to produce a safe, wholesome product.
The B.S. in Food Science with a Science emphasis is designed for students who want more rigorous science courses to prepare them for graduate school or careers in the food, pharmaceutical, and bioprocessing industries.
