The Degree Programme: Food: Product and Process Design

The food industry is a dynamic and innovative sector constantly on the lookout for new products and processes.

As a part-time co-op programme, Food: Product and Process Design places great value on relevant professional experience. The programme offers you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge and skills in product and process development in the food sector, opening up a wide range of career opportunities as a specialist in this field.

Actively shape the future of the food industry

Our degree programme teaches you to develop innovative products and optimise production processes. The combination of relevant professional experience and practical training at FH JOANNEUM allows you to directly apply and implement your theoretical knowledge in practice. As you continue to progress in your career, current issues arising in your job can be explored and discussed directly in the classroom. And the additional option of gaining certification as a System Manager in cooperation with Quality Austria allows you to enhance your expertise and qualifications even further.

Become part of an industry which is constantly on the lookout for innovations and new solutions and play an active role in shaping the future of the food industry. The Master’s programme is aimed at professionals and graduates with a Bachelor’s degree in a technical or scientific subject, preferably in the fields of food and beverages, food chemistry, biotechnology or nutritional sciences. Students from related disciplines are also welcome following clarification with the head of programme. Ideally, you will already be working in a food industry-related company and your employers will allow you to combine work with part-time study. If not, we will be happy to help you meet these requirements.

Tip

Is it possible to apply without already working in a company that will support your training? Yes. We are also happy to assist applicants in searching for a suitable training company, or to explain the details of the programme to your company.
