International Agriculture Technology - Food Technology Seoul National University

Overview

Educational contents

Educational contents: International Agriculture Technology - Food Technology at Seoul National University links primary industries such as fermentation of agricultural products and high-tech processing of biotransformation with secondary industries such as developed processed foods utilizing bio-health food materials and creating global brands and then educate theoretical and practical training to produce prototype through pilot system.

In-depth education is taught in parallel with theory and practice in the next laboratory.

Labs

Functional Food Materials & Fermentation Lab: Scientific understanding and validation of natural functional materials in the field of agronomic industry based on knowledge of basic and application fields of microorganisms, fermentation, enzymes, functional food materials and microbial genomics. It educates the theory and practice to develop and utilize as national health safety functional food material, new functional medicine and cosmetic material.

Food Material Engineering Lab:  food colloids and interfaces, probiotics encapsulation, food biopolymer engineering, food particle engineering.

Food Microbiology & Biomaterials Lab: Theory and practice for researches on the therapeutic level of probiotic material and disease-related intestinal microflora by applying molecular biology and microbiology metabolism engineering technology and mass production and industrialization of food and pharmaceutical materials through the control of dietary based food microbial metabolic circuits.
