Dept. of Food and Nutrition

Department of Food science and nutrition

Food and nutrition encompass a comprehensive field of life science dedicated to academically studying eating habits, directly influencing human physical growth and development. Within this department, we impart knowledge and conduct research on the latest scientific theories, research methods, and applied knowledge in the realm of food science and nutrition. Our aim is to enable individuals to enjoy a healthy life by fostering sensible eating habits that yield positive effects after consumption.

As living standards rise and life expectancy increases, there is a growing interest in health, leading to diverse dietary needs. Factors such as the aging population, women entering the workforce, and the rise of single-person households are influencing our eating habits. Consequently, the role of food and nutrition majors is expected to play an increasingly significant part in maintaining a balanced diet and promoting a healthy lifestyle for modern individuals in the future.
