About Food Science
Is Food Science right for me?
Being a food scientist involves working in a lab, since the field is still relatively new and evolving, there are plenty of opportunities to make breakthroughs in the industry by delving into new and exciting research. On the other hand, plenty of fieldwork can be expected. It usually involves extensive travel across multiple sites to perform food testing in different regions.
Food Science study options and costs
Within these programs, a wide range of modules are covered that range from nutrient analysis, agri-food supply chain, quality assurance to new food product development, food taste and food sustainability.
Cost of studying food science courses varies depending on the country and institution. For example, the cost of Bachelors of Food Science in Australia ranges from AUD 100,000 to 140,000 annually. While the expense of studying a Bachelors degree in the US ranges from USD 120,00 to 150,00.
Future outlook
Further development in this field could pave the way for a reduction in diet related health conditions, improved quality of food, diversification of food items, better preservation techniques, and less food wastage.
