BEng Food Engineering
About this course
BEng Food Engineering is an undergraduate engineering degree focused on the application of mechanical, electrical and automation principles to food manufacturing and processing systems. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, Control Systems, Engineering Design, and Critical & Analytical Thinking. The first year covers fundamental principles through CAD and Technical Drawing, Electrical and Electronic Technology, Engineering Mechanics, Food Components and Materials for Food Engineers, Food Quality Assurance, HACCP and Hygiene, Health & Safety, Energy and The Environment, Introduction to Robotics, and Mathematical Skills for Engineers. Year two builds on this foundation with Applied Thermofluids, Food Factory Design, Food Packaging Systems and Machinery, Food Process Engineering, Industrial Continuous Improvement, and Mechatronics Systems, alongside optional modules such as Analogue Electronics, Applied Dynamics and Vibrations, Digital Systems and Microprocessors, and Solid Body Mechanics. The final year includes compulsory study in Engineering Management and Lean Manufacturing Practices, Food Production, Processes and Technologies, and Robotics and Automation. Students can further tailor their studies in the final year through optional modules including Advanced Application of Automation to Food Industry, Advanced Mechanical Food Systems, Food Engineering Project, and Food Production and Operations Management.
