* Overview
* Program Requirements
* The foods we eat are essential to maintaining the health of individuals and populations. Students in the Honours Bachelor of Science in Food Sciences will have an in-depth knowledge of the sciences underlying the production, consumption and metabolism of food, as well as their effects on health, disease prevention and management.
* This program focuses on the acquisition of knowledge in physico-chemical and sensory properties of food, microbiology and food safety, preparing graduates for careers in the agri-food sector such as agri-food industries, businesses, food science research centres and government departments. As the only food science training offered in the context of a faculty of health sciences in Canada, this option places greater emphasis on the health impact of food.
* It offers multiple educational opportunities to actively participate in experiential learning projects. Several optional courses on currently relevant subjects, as well as internship opportunities in research, public institutions and industrial settings, and through the Cooperative Education Program, are integrated into the curriculum.
* The Honours Bachelor of Science in Food Sciences is offered in French and English.
* Dietetics training is offered in French. Please visit the French website for more details.
