Transform the future of food

Our Master of Food and Nutrition Science is designed to develop specialist skills and empower future food visionaries. You will:


  • understand the importance of a secure, sustainable and healthy food supply
  • formulate and package foods with specific functional and nutritional properties
  • expand your knowledge of nutrigenomics and metabolic nutrition
  • apply sensory and flavour science to new product development
  • discover innovative and emerging processing and preservation techniques
