2 Academic profile
2.1 Purpose
The main objectives of the programme are:
• To qualify students to undertake independent professional functions on the basis of
their scientific and technical knowledge.
• To provide an insight into theoretical and experimental scientific methods.
• To qualify students to participate in scientific development work.
2.2 General programme profile
The programme is taught in English in an international environment with foreign students.
The programme provides the competence required to undertake independent professional
functions within the national and international food industries with respect to quality
assurance and control, process control and product development. The programme also
provides the competence required to undertake independent functions within public food
control, administration and the provision of advice on questions of food policy, and to
participate in scientific development work.

processing, food quality management and product development
Page 2 of 27
2.3 General structure of the programme
The MSc Programme is set at 120 or 150 ECTS credits depending on whether or not the MSc
programme includes internship. The rules regarding internship are stipulated in The
University Programme Order (Uddannelsesbekendtgørelsen) Appendix 1, section 6, 5.
The MSc Programme in Food Science and Technology consists of the following elements:
• Specialisation, 120 ECTS credits including the thesis.
• Specialisation, 150 ECTS credits including the thesis and the internship.
The student must choose one of the following specialisations:
• General profile in Food Science and Technology.
• Dairy Science and Technology incl. internship.
• Dairy Science and Technology excl. internship.
• Brewing Science and Technology
As a consequence of the rules stipulated in The University Programme Order
(Uddannelsesbekendtgørelsen) Appendix 1, section 6, 5 concerning internship
students, who have already passed the Dairy internship as part of their BSc Programme in

are exempt from this subject element. The students must follow elective subject elements
instead.

***From 2015/16 the course will run in block 4.
Title
If a specialisation in Brewing Science Technology has been chosen, and practical experience
equivalent to Internship in the brewing industry (NFOB15015U) has been completed, the
student will be eligible for the additional title Brygmester/Diploma Master Brewer. This
additional title is administered by the Scandinavian School of Brewing.
Approved qualified internship
Approved qualified internship is only applicable for students admitted to the programmes i)
Dairy Science and Technology and ii) Brewing Science and Technology.
Students admitted to these programmes can obtain an additional title if they have passed an
approved qualified internship. Students that are admitted to these programmes and who have
not previously passed an approved qualified internship can select to follow an approved
qualified internship (30 ECTS) as an amendment to the MSc Programme.
If the student is admitted to the programme in Brewing Science and Technology, the student
has to select Brewery Internship (NFOB14010U).
Students wishing to follow an approved qualified internship must apply for permission from
the study board for Food, Human Nutrition and Sports.
After passing the internship the student must finish the selected programme, and can therefore
not change to another specialisation.
If a student has previous work experience that can be considered equal to the approved
qualified internship, they can ask the study board for exemption, in order to obtain the
additional titles (see 1.1). In such a case they must provide documentation to demonstrate that
the learning outcome which is outlined in the approved qualified internships is met.
1.1.4 Food Safety
The specialisation is discontinued. It was offered for the last time in the academic year
