Presentation
The Master's Degree Programme in Food Safety and Control aims to provide students with specialist skills in the disciplines of food technology, which are fundamental for the management and development of food production processes, mainly aimed at achieving product quality and safety, through the optimisation of these processes and the management of industrial research and development projects.Programme contents
Students' training includes the acquisition of knowledge for the application and development of systems of self-control, assessment and traceability, aimed at ensuring food safety, and those necessary to support product and process innovation, as well as skills in food chemistry, biochemistry and biochemistry of nutrition and chemometrics for the management of experimental protocols. In order to protect the quality of foods at all stages of the industrial process, skills will be provided for managing the risk of xenobiotic residues and for the conscious use of food additives and the correct use of packaging materials. To complete the training, elements of food law and legislation are provided. In addition to lectures, the course offers students in-depth seminars on specific and innovative topics with experts from companies in the food sector.Job opportunities
