Mestrado em Inovação Alimentar com Prática Industrial

Our two-year Master’s in Food Innovation with Industrial Practice will suit graduates who are looking for careers developing safe and sustainable food within the supply chain.

The food supply chain faces a series of global issues concerning sustainability and innovation. This course encourages you to develop solutions to these real-world problems. You'll discover the importance of developing new ingredients and products for safe and wholesome foods and how to enhance sustainability and creativity within food supply chains.

The course draws from a broad range of areas. These include marketing and management, risk analysis for agriculture and environment, climate change, packaging, human nutrition and public health, food microbiology and biochemistry, food safety, and quality assurance. You'll study Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) modules recognised by the Royal Society for Public Health.

This Food Innovation course includes a one-year internship with a relevant employer in a field of your interest. It prepares you for managerial roles along the food supply chain, in government legislation or enforcement, in food supply and manufacture, or in hospitality and retail. It will also benefit entrepreneurs who want to develop their own food-based businesses.
