The Interuniversity Program in Food Technology (IUPFOOD) focuses on two technological dimensions of prime and crucial importance in food processing and preservation; the transformation (processing) of raw materials into products suited for human consumption; the role of postharvest and food preservation unit operations in delivering safe and nutritious foods to the end consumer. These two concerns are directly translated into the focus points of the IUPFOOD programme. The InterUniversity Programme in Food Technology (IUPFOOD) is jointly organized by KU Leuven and Ghent University (UGent). The programme builds on KU Leuven’s and UGent’s combined expertise in research and education in the field of food technology.

You'll study how food is made, preserved, and made safe to eat, from farm to fork, in one of Europe's most established food research and production sectors. Belgium's industry connections give you direct exposure to real production environments and global supply chains.
The learning environment encourages independence and scientific curiosity across all levels of study. Through applied coursework, you examine food chemistry, microbiology, and sensory analysis, alongside quality control methods used by manufacturers worldwide. At undergraduate level, you build foundational competency in nutrition science, food processing, and regulatory standards. A Master's program goes further, placing you in research or industry-linked projects where you may analyse novel ingredients, investigate food safety protocols, or contribute to product reformulation work.
Graduates move into roles in food manufacturing, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, and product development across international markets. Belgium's position as a hub for chocolate, brewing, and processed goods means your practical training carries genuine industry weight. The methods and scientific competencies you develop here are recognised by employers in the food and agricultural sector globally.
