SCFST8002 MASTER THESIS - FOOD SCIENCE P/T
The course introduces the student to the range of biological materials used in the food processing industry. The commodity groups overviewed will include tissue and non-tissue foods. The course will also introduce the principles of maintaining these food materials in a satisfactory manner such that physiological and chemical/biochemical and nutritional changes that are inherently disadvantageous to food quality are minimised. The content will emphasise the value of an integrated approach to commodities and heir treatments. Adequate information on the physiological, physical, chemical, biochemical and nutritional status of food commodity groups will be gained.
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: $2,329
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $2,329
* 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.
