About

Overview

You'll gain the technical knowledge to work in the food industry, as well as the skills to design and promote innovative products.

This degree will develop professionals with the scientific knowledge essential for advancing technological capabilities, plus the international business, economic and financial know-how to perform management analyses with a global perspective.

You will be able to manage large-scale food processing companies with a global operational focus to make Australian manufacturing more competitive.

The knowledge and skills you will acquire throughout this degree and how they can be applied in your career are described in the learning outcomes.

Electives and course plan

Year 1

You’ll focus on business courses and study introductory science and nutrition courses.

Year 2

During second year, your business studies will focus on marketing and economics.

You’ll also develop food technology and nutrition skills through courses that cover nutrition, health and how these are affected by processing.

Year 3

Your studies will focus more on food technology as you learn to improve the nutritional quality of our manufactured food supply, creating safe and nutritious foods that taste good and have a balanced nutritional profile.

Business studies focus on management, both within the food industry and in a broader business context.

Year 4

In your final year you’ll consolidate your food technology skills through two major projects related to food product development and the development and implementation of a food safety and quality program.

These projects will give you important practical skills and a competitive edge when you graduate.

Entry Requirements

You must have successfully completed an Australian Year 12 or an equivalent senior secondary school qualification with a minimum average of 70% (see calculator below).
