Food Engineering department is a higher education programme that research on evaluation of food raw materials, conservation (preservation) of foodstuffs from quality and quantity viewpoints, multi-faceted utilization from raw materials and thus contribute to enhancement of healthy food varieties.
History
Department of Food Engineering was established in 2002 and started education and training facilities in undergraduate program in 2012. The education language is English.
Mission
To foster prospective food engineers who are experienced theoretically and practically on food engineering; sophisticated with science, technology and engineering knowledge; innovative; enterprising; prone to common mind and study, and responsive to nature. Furthermore, to construct a department to produce solutions for regional (local) and national problems related to food engineering by studies; to contribute human (countryman) for enhancing quality of life by national and international research; and also to be preferred (favorite, favored) by successful students through well instructed education.
Vision
To attain a structure that give natioanal and international level education; solve problems of food industry by the activities of research & development (R&D) and practise, and by carrying out significant scientific research on food engineering field; and contribute country development by fostering staff who aid industrial development.
Purpose
Our objectives are to conduct research and education at an advanced level, produce publications in well-known journals, and provide consulting to the industry in engineering fields; graduate engineers and scientists who have abilities to work in teams, apply scientific and engineering principles in conducting research, design, and analysis, and report on the findings, appreciate the importance of professional and ethical responsibilities and be conscious about the environmental problems, by adhering to current ethical regulations and laws; improve infrastructure continuously for education and research; bring about total quality habit by producing accurate and reliable service..
