essential in the design and operation of food processing systems. Among the variousengineering concepts and unit operations in food processing, the course mainly focuses onmaterial and energy balances, liquid and solid mass flow systems (pumps, pipes, fittings), andheat transfer and preservation processes (pasteurization, canning, dehydration), which areubiquitous in various industrial food and bio-processing operations. Subsequently, the studentsinterested in food processing as a career track are advised to take Food and Process EngineeringII and Food Bioprocess Technology to broaden their knowledge base concerning other unitoperations in food processing systems. The topics taught in AGEN 352 and the course outline aresummarized in Table 1.Table 1
