Overview

The programme will provide you with:

The knowledge and technical skills to assess food quality and safety in a research or industrial setting
The analytical skills to address issues encountered by consumers and producers concerned with food safety and quality

The Food Quality, Safety and Innovation programme at Abertay University will provide an understanding of the practical application of environmental management, and its role in the strategic development and operation of organisations and activities.

You will be able to evaluate the environmental performance of an organisation or activity and recommend appropriate measures to minimise pollution and food waste, and design appropriate control systems. Upon graduation, you will understand the policy, legal and ethical issues, and technical factors which influence environmental management to operate and plan sustainable projects.

You will be taught by a team of academics with a wealth of experience in the food sector, have contact with leading figures in industry, and take part in either a research project or industry placement.
