Faculty. Includes members from twelve departments<br />

in the Colleges of Agricultural and Environmental<br />

Sciences and Engineering, and the Schools of Medicine<br />

and Veterinary Medicine.<br />

Graduate Study. The interdepartmental Graduate<br />

Group in Food Science offers programs of study<br />

leading to the M.S. degree and to the Ph.D. degree.<br />

Graduate studies stress the application of the biological,<br />

chemical, physical, and behavioral sciences to<br />

the processing, preservation, quality evaluation,<br />

public health aspects, and utilization of foods. For<br />

the M.S. degree, there are four areas of specialization:<br />

chemistry-biochemistry, microbiology, engineering-technology<br />

and sensory science. Individually<br />

designed programs are also acceptable. For the<br />

Ph.D., there are four areas of emphasis: biochemistry,<br />

chemistry, microbiology/fermentation, and sensory<br />

science. Detailed information regarding<br />

graduate study is available through the Group<br />

Chairperson or the Group office.<br />

Graduate Advisers. Contact the Food Science<br />

Graduate Group office at kjhunter@ucdavis.edu.<br />
