食品科学理学学士

食品科学是对安全，有益健康和营养食品的生产，保存，包装和分配的科学探索。学生将在食品中建立与基础物理，微生物，化学和工程科学相关的知识库。这些科学用于研究食物的性质，食物变质和变质的原因以及食物保存的原理。科学家还利用这一技能来开发和创造新食品的生产方法，以通过提供能够提供适当营养，可接受的口味和质地，同时保持产品价格合理的食品来帮助全世界。拥有食品科学学位的毕业生为食品行业的专业职位或食品科学的进一步研究生学习做好了充分的准备。
Food Science is the study of the science behind and involved with the production, preservation, packaging, and distribution of safe, wholesome, and nutritious foods. Students will develop a knowledge base related to the basic physical, microbiological, chemical and engineering sciences as they are applied to foods. These sciences are utilized to study the nature of foods, the causes of food deterioration and spoilage, and principles of food preservation. This skill set is also employed by the scientists to develop and create approaches for the generation of new food products to assist in feeding the world through provision of foods that provide proper nutrition with acceptable taste and texture while maintaining affordability of the product. Graduates with a degree in Food Science are well prepared for professional positions within the food industry or for further graduate study in Food Science.
