UK Food Science Courses

Introduction to food science studies for Malaysian students

Studying a Food Science degree at a UK university means you are fascinated by the key aspects of food – how it is produced, is it safe, how it reacts to natural elements and if it can combat illness and disease. Be it how much fruit and vegetables to eat per day, genetically modified crops or the sugar content in the latest child-marketed drink, Food Science is never far from the headlines or our thoughts. 

Food Science is forever adapting to changing trends in an attempt to find new ways to make food taste better, be safer, and improve cost and manufacturing. Students will study a range of modules, including food composition, food safety, microbiology, product development, sustainability, and physiology.

The UK is widely regarded as a world leader in Food Science programmes, and as such, many industry professionals will visit and teach at your chosen institution. Placements are also an option for students who wish to spend a year gaining firsthand experience in the industry.

Graduate Food Science Careers and Salary

Food Science graduates will find employment in research, hygiene, nutrition, packaging, analysis, quality control and buying. Your degree can also be used in marketing and journalism, while postgraduate study is also a popular choice if you wish to continue your full-time studies.
