Food Science and Product Development

New foods are being developed and tested every day, then brought to market by companies that have spent millions on research and development, hoping for a successful launch.

There are five phases to developing a new product. However, within each phase there are many different steps.
The process usually begins with market-oriented activities, such as determining the need for the product and analyzing the market. The process then moves on to the concept phase, a basic drafting phase and a more detailed design phase. The final phases are production and sales.

This summer program, Food Product Development, has been designed to help our students understand the process of developing a new product. The cornerstone is a project where the challenge is to design a new product and to produce a prototype version of it. The goal is to learn principles and methods of products development in a realistic context. Since food sciences include many different disciplines, this program also encompasses lessons with applications in various areas (formulation, marketing and nutrition).
