Objectives
1) IMPROVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF FOOD CHEMISTRY, CHEMISTRY OF HERBAL PRODUCTS, FOOD SUPPLEMENTS AND FORTIFIED FOODS, AND ANALITYCAL METHODS USED FOR THE QUALITY CONTROL AND SAFETY.
2) APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED TO EVALUATE QUALITY CONTROL DATA, FORMULATION, LEGISLATION, AND LABELING OF HERBAL PRODUCTS, FOOD SUPPLEMENTS AND FORTIFIED FOODS, AND TO APPLY THE ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES THAT ALLOW THE DETERMINATION THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE AND FOOD SAFETY.
3) PROMOTE THE INTEGRATION OF THE KNOWLEDGE AND THE ABILITY TO RAISE THE LEVEL OF CULTURAL EDUCATION FOR GREATER INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT ON ISSUES IN THE FIELD OF FOOD CHEMISTRY AND QUALITY CONTROL.
4) DEVELOP THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE THE CONCLUSIONS OBTAINED AND THE REASONS UNDERPINNING THESE.
5) DEVELOP THE ABILITY TO STUDY INDEPENDENTLY AND SELF-MANAGED.
Prerequisites
KNOWLEDGE OF THE BASIC THEORETICAL PRINCIPLES OF GENERAL AND INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, ORGANIC CHEMISTRY AND ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
