Food science is an applied science. The basic scientific disciplines offered in a bachelor's program in food science generally include: food chemistry, food microbiology, food processing, food rheology, food engineering and quality control in the food industry. (See also, Food Science Courses offered at UWRF). Food science students usually have training in basic sciences such as physics, mathematics, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, biology, microbiology, etc. That means anybody with an interest in the basic sciences such as chemistry, physics, and biology can apply their knowledge and interest to processing and preservation of foods.
Once a student chooses to major in Food Science at UW-River Falls, the faculty advisors in the program will work with the student to determine their career interests in the broad field of Food Science.
