Food Technology & Processing

Food Biotechnology

Food Biotechnology is concentrated on evolving developments and solicitations of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems. The objective is to aid produce and improve foods, food ingredients, and functional foods at the processing stage and beyond agricultural production, genetically modified plants are used to develop taste, shell life, nutrition and quality of food, genetically modified food is manufactured using biotechnological tools. Food Nutrition and Dietetics is the field dedicated to the study of food as it relates to health and wellness. It encompasses the science of nutrients, their digestion, absorption, metabolism, and their effects on health. Professionals in this field, such as dietitians and nutritionists, work to promote good health through proper dietary practices and nutrition education. Food Nutrition and Dietetics integrates knowledge from biology, chemistry, physiology, and psychology to understand how food choices impact overall well-being. Research in this field explores dietary patterns, nutritional supplements, and the role of food in disease prevention.
