SCFSS1102 Applications in Food Testing
This course gives students a practical and theoretical understanding of how analytical and biochemical food tests are performed. Students will learn basic principles of chemistry and apply them to food product development and processing to maintain product safety, quality and efficiency in food processing. Students will apply their understanding of the major chemical constituents in foods to interpret test requirements, including preparation of samples, calibration checks on analytical equipment, and performing routine testing of raw food materials, in-process materials and final products.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
