The two-year Master’s in Food Innovation with Industrial Practice will suit graduates who are looking for careers developing safe and sustainable food within the supply chain. The food supply chain faces a series of global issues concerning sustainability and innovation. This course encourages you to develop solutions to these real-world problems. You'll discover the importance of developing new ingredients and products for safe and wholesome foods and how to enhance sustainability and creativity within food supply chains. The course draws from a broad range of areas. These include marketing and management, risk analysis for agriculture and environment, climate change, packaging, human nutrition and public health, food microbiology and biochemistry, food safety, and quality assurance. You'll study Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) modules recognised by the Royal Society for Public Health.

This Food Innovation course includes a one-year internship with a relevant employer in a field of your interest. It prepares you for managerial roles along the food supply chain, in government legislation or enforcement, in food supply and manufacture, or in hospitality and retail. It will also benefit entrepreneurs who want to develop their own food-based businesses. The course is accredited by the Institute of Food Science and Technology.

The industrial placement lasts approximately one year. This is an opportunity to put into practice the knowledge and experience you've gained during the first year of the master's course plus any previous study or experience. You'll be able to engage with current industrial systems, processes and practices, which contribute to your professional development as a manager in the food sector. Our Faculty Employability Team provides support and guidance. We work with a organisation that specialises in helping students to secure an industrial placement. However, it is your responsibility to secure the placement for your second year. This could be with a local or international employer in a relevant sector. If a placement is not secured, it will still be possible to graduate with an MSc in Food Innovation without Industrial Practice.
