Mr man ,food technology is not about cooking but food processing . Many preserved food you eat in cans and nylon passes thru food technologist thru some medium designed by food food engineering.

If I wasn't a food scientist and technologist I wonder what I would have been...

There is no professional course whatsoever than food science and technology... Quote me anywhere...

Have known only two courses food science and technology and others...

Ps: To the gullible and ignorant food Science and technology is not about cooking, it far way beyond that. It encompasses a whole lot....

Food Science and Technogy is a multidisciplinary field that applies physical, chemical, biological, and engineering principles to food processing, preservation, storage, and product development.

It is still relatively unknown in Nigeria, and some of those who know it relate it with catering or cooking profession.... Far from it.... As a food scientist and technologist..... We are as good as those who study Medicine......Medicine study on health, FST study agriculture, the processing, preservation, storage, nutrition composition and it effect and digestibility in man.
Under food science and technology
We have food chemistry
Food microbiology
Food analysis
Food biochemistry
Food toxicology
Food machinery
Food rheology
Food engineering
Quality control and assurance
Product development and research
Post harvest practice
To mention a few.

Food Science and Technology field is the largest employer of labour in the world

Think about Guiness, Nigerian Breweries, Coca cola, Pespi, FrieslandCampina, Cowbell company, Noodles companies, Sugar companies, Nestle, UAC, Cadbury, Flourmills, Vegetable oil companies, Bakeries, Water factories to mention but a few.

If you want to study this profession, you need a strong science background.....Biology Chemistry and Mathematics and very important....you must like to read wide...because it haß many borrowed courses since it is an applied science.

Thanks...

I didn't see this on time,OP we are here,What branch of this course do you need to know about,we have so many as listed by the person up there,I majored in food technology and currently studying for food science,its a broad subject.

And I forever thank the daddy that listed it as a course I should study when I went for diploma grin
I thought we were going there to cook,until lectures started,looked simple at first then the real lectures started and I realize I had to put in more work than I ever did with my academics.
Now I see food differently, I see producers differently,I appreciate nature more and I'm happy i can do something for myself in this type of economy as long as I am willing and hardworking

op thanks for this. the major constrain we have is the economic situation of the country and the capital intense of having a medium processing plant( millions of naira). and if u decide to start a project with small change, the big guys with lot of bars not even in the field will hijack ur ideal and formular.
experience as a student has been so tedious, u have to take courses from different faculties such as science, engineering, medicine, agric. and do some social science courses. na small remain make we go dey borrow from art self( asewo cus lol). sincerely,for u to cope it tedious. infact we hardly have 1st class nd 2nd upper.
it a big misconception that food technology is about cooking. infact u will be so much disapointd that it is not.that why u see majorly admitted student to be more of female than male.
i so much believe that the 1st major nid of man is food even before shelter.
as a food technologist our major aim is to avoid postharvest loss. as a fod technologist you can be independent unlike some oda cus ( lol).
i wanna use this medium to inform the government to give funds to young food processors.
thank you op for putting us on front page.
course duration: 5 years( so no b beans o)

I am a graduate of food science and technology.
But now, I am into ATM (installation & repair, hardware & software). The only food industry experience I have was during my IT @ Nigeria Flour Mill. Though I wish I work in a food company, I must say that food scientists/technologist/engineers are not taken serious in this country.
