Nourishing Minds: Unlocking the Future of Food Science and Technology at Yeungnam University

Educational Goals

The Department of Food Engineering is an academic field related to the production and processing of food and materials essential for maintaining human life and promoting health. Based on basic science, it deals with cutting-edge convergence studies that combine food engineering and biotechnology technologies necessary for the production of food and materials. In order to cultivate customized talent who will be active in various fields such as food-related industries and research institutes, it is essential to educate specialized knowledge and cultivate practical skills in food production, processing, distribution, and research and development. Therefore, the Department of Food Engineering focuses on providing education on the theory and practice of food production, storage, processing, distribution, and exploration and processing of new materials, and provides creative and challenging skills that can contribute to the country’s industrial development and improve human health. The educational goal is to cultivate professional food engineers with thinking and application skills and future-oriented values.

In particular, in order to faithfully realize the university’s basic mission of education, research, and community service based on Yeungnam University’s founding spirit and educational goals, first, recognize undergraduate education as the completion stage of human education and provide creative and creative education through fruitful general education and character education. Second, we train leaders with an enterprising spirit and a spirit of service. Second, we train excellent food technicians in the field of food engineering required by national society and industry to provide technical support to our food industry in response to the coming era of international competition and to serve the people. The main educational goal is to contribute to maintaining a healthy diet.
