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.
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.
