Consumers are becoming increasingly demanding in what they choose to eat: low carb, vitamin enriched, fat free, organic, sustainably produced, isotonic, carbon neutral, fortified, genetically modified, healthy.. . and then there’s flavour, safety and affordability. Finding out what people in different markets around the world want and then how to produce it and get it there in top condition is a real challenge for food producers! Consumer Food Science encompasses many different subjects and applications, and that’s reflected in the breadth of job opportunities. Graduates frequently find employment before they have even completed their final year at university. You could end up working for a national or international food company specialising in dairy, confectionery, brewing, fruit and vegetables, seafood or any other foodstuff.
