Rutgers University invites you to transform, broaden and update your food science skills with this highly focused, practical training!

Advance your career by attending our food science short course. In minimum time, you will:

• Build your value by expanding your range and depth of skills with a quick infusion of targeted food science education.
• Learn from the best instructors from both the food industry and Rutgers University, covering key points in food chemistry, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, color, sensory, nutrition, microbiology, and processing.
• Gain the skills and vocabulary you need to better understand, develop, and promote your food products in a competitive market.

• Earn Certified Food Scientist (CFS) recertification contact hours (CH) and NJ Public Health Continuing Education Contact Hours (CEs).

Working with the best instructors in industry and universities, you will move through the key points of food chemistry, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, color, sensory, nutrition and finally microbiology. You will meet the most valuable seams of a Food Science degree – but in only five days instead of four years! You will leave with a better vocabulary and understanding of the wide range of disciplines needed to develop and produce competitive food products -- from food chemistry and food microbiology to nutrition and sensory evaluation.
