Food and beverage industry is one of biggest and steady growing manufacturing sector in terms of jobs and value added. Over the last century, the global population has quadrupled and food demand is expected to increase anywhere between 59% to 98% by 2050. More and more qualified specialists will be needed who can analyse the nutritional content of food, discover new food products, and research ways to make processed foods safe and healthy.

BSc in Food Science and Nutrition with Professional Studies this degree program is about gaining knowledge and understanding of key areas in relation to food production and consumption. Food Science concerns the ‘fitness for purpose’ of our food in terms of appearance (e.g. color and surface qualities, texture, flavor, and odor) and how these can be improved, alongside the physical, microbiological, and chemical aspects of our food, which may be harmful to human health and how these can be minimized.

Food choices are no longer about what we will have for dinner. Behind those choices are the biggest challenges of our time: How do we address chronic disease, waste, climate change, rapid urbanization, technological change, hunger, and inequity? Everyone in the food sector must deal with these challenges and opportunities; this is the world that the next generation of food workers is entering. The Honours Bachelor of Food Studies degree program will bring a new focus on justice and equity, sustainability and health, and a new awareness of how these societal issues can be analyzed and resolved.

In this unique program, offered on McGill University's Macdonald Campus, you’ll study the complementary disciplines of food and nutritional sciences, earning two degrees. You’ll learn how to create better-tasting, longer-lasting food, and understand the role nutrition plays in health and disease.

The master program Food Sciences aims to educate qualified professionals able to use food research results at food factories and develop new products complying with demands of customers and satisfying their needs of healthy nutrition. In addition, graduates get competences in human resource management, organisation of production process and confidence for quick self-adjustment to continuously changing market.

The BSc Food Science and Human Nutrition degree provides students with a broad science-based education, with specialist content on the future of food development and production, safety and quality assurance, food chemistry, human nutrition, the role of food and healthy living, the science of sensory perception and how we experience food, the future of food in a diverse society and the social and global challenges around food security.
