Food Control, Expertise and Safety

The master's degree program in Food Control, Expertise and Food Safety was designed as a professional master's degree and is addressed, in particular, to graduates of the bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Food Science and Engineering. This form of training meets the needs of the labor market, which in recent years has required specialists in the field of food quality, who have skills in the field of safety and quality systems management, in the field of quality audit and who take on responsibilities associated with verification, expertise and quality and safety management both in production and in distribution and sales. Territorial Food Safety Agencies established as a matter of priority for food safety in the European area, call for well-trained graduates able to assess the hazards associated with the consumption of inappropriate food and to instruct producers and consumers on measures to be taken to prevent or minimize risks, in order to reduce the number of foodborne illnesses.
