It requires the collaboration of multiple stakeholders to ensure a safe, nutritious and sustainable food supply. Food scientists play a crucial role in ensuring a safe and sustainable food supply for a growing global population by integrating diverse concepts from nutrition, microbiology, chemistry and laboratory sciences. One of their primary responsibilities is to safeguard food safety, which is vital for protecting consumers from health issues and preventing financial losses for producers. Without proper food safety management, foodborne diseases and related injuries can have severe consequences. The ongoing need for food science and safety professionals is obvious, with high demand for graduates in quality control, food testing, and product development. Programme Aims and Features Programme Aims: The programme aims to provide students with the knowledge and skills in food science and safety to deal with the global challenge of increasing the provision of high quality, safe and healthy food. The programme also aims to develop basic laboratory skills of students so that they can apply the knowledge of food science to different aspects of the food industry such as food processing, food safety, testing, quality assurance, preservation, and product development. It also prepares them to progress to further studies towards a degree in the relevant fields, and enables timely entry into the workforce to meet the growing demand for the food science and testing services. On completion of the programme, students should be able to​: Communicate ideas in a manner appropriate to the circumstance using English and Chinese languages (oral and written) in social and academic contexts; Use quantitative/ numerical skills to solve daily life problems; Explain the fundamentals of sciences and its application in food processing and human health; Apply the scientific principles of nutrition, food science and food processing to analyse the safety aspects of raw materials and food products; Work in the laboratory effectively to identify the major microorganism and substances in food and implement food safety control measures by conducting appropriate inspection, sanitation and documentation practices; Apply the knowledge of nutrition, food science, food processing and safety regulations to develop a functional food product. ​ Opportunities for Further Studies UGC-funded Universities The programme is tailored to cover foundational principles and knowledge in science, food science and food safety that complement the in-depth, research-driven content of advanced courses at the university. Graduates are eligible to apply for admission to Bachelor's degree programmes in food science, food safety and technology, analytical sciences for testing and certification or related disciplines offered by local universities. The list below shows the degree programmes that our graduates may apply for further studies*: The University of Hong Kong Bachelor of Science BSc (Major in Food and Nutritional Science) (Senior Year Entry) The Chinese University of Hong Kong Bachelor of Science BSc Biochemistry BSc Molecular Biotechnology BSc Natural Sciences Hong Kong University of Science and Technology BSc Biotechnology The Hong Kong Polytechnic University BSc (Hons) Analytical Sciences for Testing and Certification BSc (Hons) Applied Biology with Biotechnology BSc (Hons) Food Safety and Technology (Senior Year Entry) BSc (Hons) Scheme in Food Science and Nutrition Other Local Institutions Graduates are also eligible to apply for the below degree programmes offered by other institutions: Hong Kong Metropolitan University BSc (Hons) Food Testing Science HKU SPACE in collaboration with Ulster University, UK BSc (Hons) Food and Nutrition *The above list is not exhaustive and only shows some of the examples. Career Prospects Students have opportunities to engage in laboratory practical and food industry visits, enhancing their understanding of real-world applications and preparing them for various career paths such as food safety officer, quality control technician, or roles in food product development within the food industry.
