Create and innovate in the world of food, marketing and technology

By choosing the Bachelor in Food Technology, you could become one of the creative food experts who dedicate their career to developing new products and introducing them to the international food market. The food industry is an industry that most consumers take for granted. Healthier, tastier, and more innovative food products are appearing on our supermarket shelves almost daily. With this huge product range and the consumers’ increasing demand for variety, the need for food technologists is growing rapidly.

Nowadays, consumers increasingly demand healthy, safe, and tasty foods. As a food technologist, you analyze consumers and their demands in terms of marketing, product quality, and business administration. Market research, knowledge of production processes and product properties, and, perhaps most importantly, understanding what happens in the human body when we consume food, are crucial in developing new foodstuffs.

Luxury of choice on the job market

You study the chemical, microbiological, and physical composition of food, while you also dive into the fascinating world of nutrition, flavor, trends, trade, and health. This is a fantastic challenge for creative, technically-minded 'foodies'. As there are currently far fewer graduates than job openings, food technology graduates have the luxury of choice on the job market, which is a big advantage in this day and age.

Generally, food technologists are innovative, enthusiastic, and business-minded people with a passion for food and a comprehensive understanding of the sciences. From chemistry and microbiology to marketing, from processing to advanced technologies: the interdisciplinary Food Technology Bachelor programme covers all these topics and more.
