Course Objectives : |
Encourage students to develop an ability to design a food processing plant. To develop ability to synthesize and integrate information already learned to new situations. Develop skills in finding and using information and/or technology central to food processing design To demonstrate the importance of various stages of plant design such as cost estimation, feasibility studies, capacity planning, plant location and management. To develop ability to analyze the food processing systems in terms of engineering principles and the economics of the operation. Demonstrate ability to apply theoretical concepts to practical situations |
