About the programme
Food Processing is a German-taught, research-oriented Master of Science (M.Sc.) at Fulda University of Applied Sciences. It takes 3 semesters (90 ECTS), or 4 with a 180 ECTS Bachelor's, and you can start in winter or summer. The programme combines natural sciences, process engineering, food technology and business. Compulsory modules cover food processing, biochemistry and molecular biology, product design, and physics of food, and a large share of electives lets you build your own profile, for example in plant-based or animal food technology, pharmaceutical technology or food chemistry. You take part in small research projects and write your Master's thesis in the third semester. It suits food technology graduates who enjoy research and small study groups. Requirements include a relevant degree with a grade of 2.5 or better (or an aptitude interview) and German at C1.

Prerequisites
Evidence of a first degree qualifying for entry into a profession in food technology or a related discipline with a high proportion of food-related components totalling 210 credits and an average grade of 2.5 or better. If less than 210 ECTS credits are available, the missing ECTS credits must be supplemented by completing modules from the study programmes of the Department of Food Technology.
If the degree was passed with a grade lower than 2.5, the applicant can be admitted to the Master's degree programme on application with evidence of very good food-related specialist knowledge. Evidence of this must be provided in a personal aptitude interview in front of two professors from the department. Applicants who are not graduates of a Bachelor's programme in food technology may be required to take modules from the department's study programmes.
