Program Description

This is a one year full-time Honours program in Food Science. It is designed to provide extensive research training in some aspects of Food Science and Technology at undergraduate level. The research orientation of the program, compared to the Graduate Diploma, facilitates entry into a research higher degree (MSc/PhD) upon completion of Honours at a satisfactory level.

Entry to the program requires satisfactory completion of a Bachelor degree, or equivalent, in an area considered relevant to Food Science and Technology. Students who have completed a four year Bachelor program, in which Honours has already been awarded, are specifically excluded.

The major component of the program is an extensive research project, conducted throughout one year of full-time study. Candidates also take 6 units of credit of courses within the School, or such other courses as approved by the program coordinator. Honours is awarded on the basis of performance in the research project and satisfactory completion of coursework.
