Food Engineering

Food engineering is a scientific, academic, and professional field that interprets and applies principles of engineering, wisdom, and mathematics to food manufacturing and operations, including the processing, production, handling, storehouse, conservation, control, packaging and distribution of food products. Given its reliance on food wisdom and broader engineering disciplines similar as electrical, mechanical, civil, chemical, artificial and agrarian engineering, food engineering is considered a multidisciplinary and narrow field. Food engineers design and develop systems for product, processing, distributing, and storing food and agrarian materials. Operations include food safety and quality, bio refining, pharmaceuticals, and environmentally-friendly packaging. Graduates are employed by assiduity and consulting companies.
