Bachelor of Food Science and Human Nutrition
Course Overview
Food is an essential part of everyone's lives. As an increasingly health-conscious society and population, new and innovative approaches are required for food processing and preservation as well as our diet to obtain health and sustainability. Food and beverage processing is Australia's largest manufacturing industry. This highly dynamic industry offers great opportunities for food and nutrition scientists to work in different areas, such as product development, food regulation, quality assurance, food safety and research. With internationally recognised experts and many food companies in the region, studying food science and human nutrition at University of Newcastle's Central Coast campus gives you up-to-date knowledge in food science and human nutrition, and enables you to gain plenty of practical experience from our well-equipped laboratories and the food companies.
