This program will develop students\u2019 higher-level thinking skills to gain a deep understanding of the multi-dimensional and multi-sectoral nature of the food security, food safety, and nutrition challenges and to be able to identify the innovative solutions to these challenges, such as the necessity to maximize the utilization of resources and to global supply chain strategy and to integrate the food and nutrition security, food safety homogeneously in all the region. This course aims to address in a sustainable manner to develop the modules as Professional Master Program (1 year), Full Master Degree Program (2 Years), and Doctoral Degree Program (3.5 years) in \u201cFood Innovation, Nutrition, and Health (FINH)\u201d to cater the graduates with the holistic knowledge. The course will provide the students with the skills necessary to function in roles in the food industry, public health sector, and food regulatory agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"text-align:justify;\">Graduates will develop enhanced knowledge, skills, and competencies in relation to food and nutrition security, particularly in areas of innovative food product development, policy analysis and implementation in food safety, product design, implementation and management, and impact assessment. These skills will be situated in an understanding of the multi-sectoral nature of the challenges of food insecurity, malnutrition, and designer foods (Superfoods). Within the industry, graduates will work in areas such as research and development, product innovation, hygienic design, technical sales, product quality enhancement with the distinct advantage of bringing a nutrition perspective to all aspects of the food industry including product development, marketing, and sales. Within public health and regulatory agencies, graduates will work in the areas of nutrition and health promotions, food labeling regulations, and\/or safety and Quality Standardization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FOCUS AREAS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Food Innovation,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design Thinking and Healthy Food Product Development<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nutrition, Diet and Health<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Food Waste Valorization and Bio-circular Green Economy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traditional Foods, Bioprocessing and Biotransformations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Functional Foods and Neutraceuticals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nutrigenomics and Personalized Foods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Food Safety Management Systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nanotechnology in Food Product Design and Delivery Systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delivery and pharmacokinetics of bioactive molecules&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PREFERRED BACKGROUND<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the background a student must have to attend the program<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Food Science, Food Technology, Food Engineering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nutrition Science<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Biotechnology,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bioprocess Engineering and Technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chemical Engineering and Biochemical Engineering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Industrial Technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Science in Microbiology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Science in Animal Produce Food Safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pharmacy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Science in Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Science in Food Safety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Veterinary Medicine&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Agriculture, Fisheries and Animal Science related Degree.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Medicine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"c-table\">\n  <div class=\"c-table__watermark \"><img class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/aitwp\/build\/images\/icons\/internet.svg\"\/><\/div>\n  <div class=\"c-table__heading\">\n    <h2 class=\"c-table__title\">COURSE STRUCTURE<\/h2>          <\/div>\n  <table class=\"c-table__table  \">\n    <thead>\n      <tr>\n                              <th>Course Code<\/th>\n                                        <th>Course<\/th>\n                                        <th>Number of Credits<\/th>\n                                        <th>Description\/Course Objective<\/th>\n                                        <th>Semester<\/th>\n                        <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n              <tr>\n                    <td>ED87.01 <\/td>\n                    <td>Food Safety Standardizations, Risk Management, and Traceability Systems<\/td>\n                    <td>4 (4-0)<\/td>\n                    <td><p style=\"text-align:justify;\">The course emphasizes food quality control as the mechanism for the prevention of food spoilage at the \u201cfarm-to-fork\u201d level and food-borne illness, thus securing good public health.\nThis subject helps the student to understand how food science and business stakeholders will be able to control the food safety hazards associated with the food including minimization of risk by understanding the food safety management systems, food quality management systems, hygienic design and processes and innovations in traceability systems.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n                    <td>Aug Sem<\/td>\n                  <\/tr>\n              <tr>\n                    <td>ED87.02 <\/td>\n                    <td>Gut Physiology, Metabolic Diseases, and Health<\/td>\n                    <td>3 (3-0)<\/td>\n                    <td><p style=\"text-align:justify;\">This course aims to explain how humans can extract energy from macronutrients (i.e. carbohydrates, proteins and lipids) with the progression from their digestion, absorption and transportation.
