- [00:00:03.600]The food science and technology program
- [00:00:05.740]at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln
- [00:00:07.700]give students knowledge
- [00:00:08.970]and the scientific background of food,
- [00:00:11.260]combined with an extensive understanding
- [00:00:13.460]of the technologies that protect, preserve, and enhance it.
- [00:00:17.710]I chose to major in food science
- [00:00:19.470]because I really enjoyed studying science in general.
- [00:00:23.110]And food science is a major that has a lot of marketability
- [00:00:26.320]in the real world after graduation.
- [00:00:28.980]And I really appreciate just all the options you can go into
- [00:00:32.270]after you graduate
- [00:00:33.630]Students studying food science and technology
- [00:00:36.500]graduate ready to work in many different areas
- [00:00:39.590]of the food industry from private companies
- [00:00:42.490]to government and regulatory agencies.
- [00:00:45.350]The job market for graduates with a degree
- [00:00:47.530]in food science and technology continues to be strong
- [00:00:50.620]with some of the highest starting salaries in the college.
- [00:00:54.430]Students can also leverage their degree
- [00:00:56.750]to go to graduate school or pursue careers in medicine,
- [00:01:00.280]pharmacy, and other health-related fields.
- [00:01:03.400]The world of food science is uniquely fascinating
- [00:01:06.100]and extremely diverse.
- [00:01:07.920]Everything that you can think of
- [00:01:09.320]from a granola bar to probiotics,
- [00:01:12.050]probably there's been a food scientist
- [00:01:13.860]behind those products.
- [00:01:16.460]The food science and technology program
- [00:01:18.600]at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln
- [00:01:20.330]is an IFT-approved program,
- [00:01:22.630]making us a great choice
- [00:01:24.310]for a high-quality food science education.
- [00:01:27.910]Students take their learning beyond the classroom
- [00:01:30.270]by gaining valuable professional experiences.
- [00:01:33.530]Student-led research projects provide the opportunity
- [00:01:36.950]to work one-on-one with faculty
- [00:01:38.900]while expanding their knowledge
- [00:01:40.430]and learning the ins and outs of research on food safety,
- [00:01:43.570]food chemistry, and food engineering.
- [00:01:46.410]Students can make an impact before they graduate.
- [00:01:50.020]What I like about this department
- [00:01:51.470]is that it's really small.
- [00:01:53.370]So you actually get to know your peers
- [00:01:56.230]and the professors really well.
- [00:01:58.310]And you have a great opportunity to make connections
- [00:02:01.500]that can help you professionally as well.
- [00:02:04.330]And you also have the opportunity to participate in research
- [00:02:07.890]or help out in the food processing center, if you want to.
- [00:02:11.740]From meeting the food demands
- [00:02:13.420]of our growing population
- [00:02:14.920]to research testing of food allergens
- [00:02:17.040]to ensure a safe food supply,
- [00:02:19.190]students graduate prepared to make real change
- [00:02:22.160]that affects the health of the world.
