SCFST3026 PRODUCT and PROCESS DEVELOPMENT
The course provides students with an advanced knowledge of tools and methods of product and process development in the food industry. Students develop project management and problem solving skills, and learn to plan and lead projects in all stages from development of concepts through to implementation, considering consumer insight, regulatory requirements, formulation and costs analysis, scale-up, sensory evaluation, stability and shelf life validation, and to deliver results within allocated time, resources and project success criteria. The course also applies and integrates basic principles of science and technology learnt in previous semesters through formulation of food products and development of manufacturing processes.
