Students will master theoretical principles and practical procedures of technology of plant and animal food production, including physical, chemical and biological processes, which take place in individual stages of production and significantly influence sensory, nutritional and hygienic parameters of food.
In this context, they will have an overview of the hygienic and legislative requirements necessary for the production of quality, safe and sensory attractive food.
Emphasis will be placed on the ability to apply theoretical knowledge in practice.

Knowledge and skills in the field of food technology at the level of the previous master's degree.

The course is realised in the form of individual consultations. An e-learning system (LMS Moodle) is available for teachers and students.

Professional discussion on a given topic - colloquium.

1. Engineering technology of dry, chilled, frozen, fermented products
2. Engineering technology of child nutrition products and of specialty foods
3. Encapsulation techniques and their use in food production
4. Enzymatic processes in food production
5. Hydrogenation processes and the processes of phase transformations
6. Technology of production of „sous – vide“ type products, minimally-processed food production
7. The system of good manufacturing practice and critical points in food production, algorithm of implementation of production, legislative requirements for the development and approval of new products.
8. Arranging operation for production of „ready to eat“ products, optimization of production, control health and safety aspects of production and product parameters.

The aim of the course is to deepen students' existing knowledge of technological processes of food production and extend their knowledge in this field with a focus on new directions of food production and application of new (modern) methods in food production. The last part includes the necessary knowledge of legislative and hygienic aspects of food production.

Teaching is realized by consultations on topics, which are based on assignment of doctoral thesis.
