| Målbeskrivelse | |||||||||||||||
| This is a mandatory course for the specialisation of MSc in Dairy Technology. The overall aim of the course is to provide students with in-depth knowledge of the technology involved in processing of fluid milk products (incl. fermented milks), butter, cheese, dried and concentrated milks and ice cream. After completing the course the student should be able to: Knowledge: - Sum up on the major factors influencing dairy product manufacture and quality. - Sum up the main unit operations performed to produce dairy products. - Reflect on how the various unit operations affect dairy product quality. - Reflect on how colloidal interactions can be controlled in order to produce stable dairy products. - Reflect over the interplay between society as a whole and the dairy industry. Skills: - Apply the principles of colloid science to processing of dairy products. - Apply obtained knowledge of dairy technology to pilot plant practicals and analyses on dairy products. - Structure reports from practicals and handle treatment and discussion of obtained data. Competences: - Work independently - Work effectively in a group during pilot plant and laboratory practicals - Interact with professionals in the dairy industry and associated organizations | |||||||||||||||
