Emphasis is placed on the necessary qualities and skills of the future food scientist, i.e. aspects of quality assurance, management techniques, laboratory safety and security, LEAN proceedures, and digital photography and picture manipulation. This is achieved through a varied and highly interactive programme which includes lectures and hands-on exercises taught by faculty from Laborantskolen and professional photografers. The course comprises 9 modules each lasting one day. The participants must participate in four modules in total to pass the course. They can choose for free which modules to pass. The 9 modules will run once in the period 2009-2011. The participants can choose freely the order of the modules and the time span used for taking the modules. The cause is evaluated by evaluation of a written assignment (see below). If desired, the participants can choose to take the modules as stand-alone workshops/courses without ECTS credit and evaluation. Module 1-3: Quality assurance in the laboratory - inspiration from GLP and GMP Module 4: Digital photography - taking the right picture Module 5: Digital photography - manipulation of pictures. Module 6: Management techniques for the laboratory manager. Module 7: Laboratory safety and security. Module 8: Laboratory sampling. Module 9: LEAN in the laboratory. Examination: The participants must hand-in a written assignment - a reflection paper. In this paper, the participant will make a review of the elements learned and explain how these elements have and/or will change the laboratory practice of the participant. Dates: Module 1-3: 24-26 March 2009 Module 4: Digital photography - taking the right picture. 3 May 2010 (Copenhagen) Module 5: Digital photography - manipulation of pictures. 4 May 2010 (Copenhagen) Module 6: Management techniques for the laboratory manager. 28 April 2010. Module 7: 22 September 2009 Module 8: Laboratory sampling. 2 September 2009 - LIFE Module 9: 2011 - to be announced. The exact dates of the modules will be announced approx. 6 months in advance. Some of the modules run for the first time in 2008 (Digital Photography - students can get credit for these parts as well) and in 2007 (Laboratory sampling).
