Students in this programme will learn theoretical and technical knowledge in a specialised field of science such as: Food technology is about the science of food. People who choose this pathway can work in entry level positions as food technologists who develop new food products, analyse the components of food, or; food safety officers who audit the food manufacturing industry, Environmental technology is about the science of conservation, biosecurity and environmental management. People who choose this pathway can work in entry level positions as biosecurity officers who help manage pest animal and plant control, and help conserve local environments and Biotechnology is about the 'doing' of science, this includes quality assurance of laboratory practices, the analysis of samples and reporting on sample results. People who choose this pathway can work in entry level positions as researchers or laboratory technicians. This programme is highly practical. Alongside learning theory, students will spend time in the laboratory developing the essential practical skills that are useful in the workplace. It is intended that students will complete Applied Science 5 before proceeding to this programme. After completing this programme students can progress into relevant employment, or into further study with the Bachelor of Technology.
