食品科学与营养学士学位（荣誉学位）

食品科学是一门多学科的学科，将化学和生物学等科学应用于食品研究。我们的食品科学与营养理学学士学位课程将使您了解将成为食品的原料，它们如何相互作用以及食品科学如何对人类健康和疾病产生重大影响。食品安全也是该课程的重要组成部分，因为食品可能是引起疾病的化学物质和微生物的主要来源。我们的课程不仅可以使您对食品的成分和分析有透彻的了解，还可以为您提供高水平的营养和微生物学经验。
Study on an Institute of Food Science and Technology (IFST) accredited course. Gain industry experience through our Professional Training placements, where you can work for a range of employers, including the Government, specialised bakery, confectionary, cereal and dairy food companies, as well as nutrition businesses. Learn from lecturers whove been awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize 2017-18 for Further and Higher Education, in recognition of their research excellence in the field of food and nutrition. Food science is a multidisciplinary subject that applies biology and chemistry to the study of food. In your first year, youll study a broad range of topics, including food science and nutrition, to give you a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of your degree. In your second year, youll develop your understanding of what happens to the components of food during processing and storage. You'll gain an understanding of the role of food microbiology and how safe, nutritious food can be produced. Youll acquire an appreciation for the functionality of ingredients used in foods, while exploring the basis of nutrition and the role this has on aetiology and prevention of key disorders, such as cancer.<br><br>In your third year, youll have the choice to specialise further, studying topics like food chemistry to continue to evaluate the role of natural and added components in the foods we eat. You will also gain a more in-depth understanding of the technologies used to produce safe and nutritious foods as well as the importance of food security. Youll also advance your knowledge of the role of nutrition in illnesses like cardiovascular disease.
