Food shortages around the world have left the food industry crying out for talented engineers who have a scientific outlook. We are offering one of the first courses of its kind in the UK and we will teach you how to engineer and plan the development of food all the way from farm to plate, focusing on how to make operations and management more efficient. Three key areas will flow through the course - engineering and technology, food and drink, and business. You will examine how technology systems are used to construct and build things, the science behind food, engineering principles of the production process, health and safety requirements, how to grow food, and supply and ethics. We will also build your knowledge of labelling, storage, manufacturing, transportation, packaging, food preservation, and marketing the end product. You could be coming to us straight from A level, or you might be an apprentice engineer looking to specialise in the food industry. We will give you the skills to improve the engineering process in food production, focussing on how to make operations and management more efficient, lowering costs and increasing productivity. This is a multi-national industry with global supply chains and our course will provide you with the expertise to play a leading role in improving food operations and production around the world in an industry with a high demand for engineers that have the ability to identify and resolve problems.

There is a strong demand for engineers who have the ability to identify and resolve problems, and you will have the expertise to play a leading role in improving food operations and production. Your potential for employment will be huge and global – from roles in the quality process, packaging, farm production and process industry to positions managing structures for retailers, in plant design, canning, food transportation or storage. You will be equipped to make a real impact in this industry.
