About Faculty
The Faculty of Food Science and Technology had its humble beginnings in 1976 with the establishment of the Department of Food Science and Technology under the Faculty of Agriculture. The establishment of the department is in line with the need of the country to fulfil the shortage of skilled employees in the field of science-based food. At that time, only one undergraduate program was offered: Bachelor of Food Science and Technology.
On March 1, 1982, the Department of Food Science and Technology was upgraded to the Faculty of Food Science and Technology. There were two (2) departments under the Faculty: Department of Food Technology and Department of Food Science. In 1986, the Faculty was renamed Faculty of Food Science and Biotechnology (FSMB) with the establishment of the Department of Biotechnology that offered the Bachelor of Science (Biotechnology) program with six (6) modules: Plant Biotechnology, Molecular Biotechnology, Food Biotechnology, Industrial Biotechnology and Environmental Biotechnology and Management.
This field offers innovative, dynamic and challenging experience to aspiring individuals who are keen to increase their knowledge and skills in food management disciplines and also provides hands-on research opportunities for students to develop their skills. This field allows students to carry out their research in food management areas such as service quality, organizational culture, human resource management, service scope failure and associated recovery strategies, organizational efficiency, brand image, product development, food marketing and consumers behavior.
