The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) issued a report on the importance and complexities associated with feeding the projected 9.1 billion world population in 2050. Sustainable production of safe and nutritious foods, development of foods that have a long shelf life and foods that are either ready-to-eat or easy to are of greater importance towards meeting this goal. Understanding “Food Engineering” and “Thermal Processing of Foods” serves as basic requirement means of meeting this goal.

INTENDED AUDIENCE : The target audience for this course is

BTech/MSc/MTech/PhD students or faculties from reputed academic and technical institutions interested in acquiring knowledge of thermal food processing technologies

Those who are pursuing a career as a chemical engineer or food engineer or biotechnologist designing thermal processing technologies for food processing or working with thermal processing of foods

Executives, engineers and researchers from manufacturing, service and government organizations including R&D laboratories working in the area of thermal food processing

INDUSTRY SUPPORT : Food Corporation of India, Department of food & Public Distribution, India Central Food Technological Research Institute, Institute of Food Security and Central Warehousing Corporation.
