Presentation
The second year of the more professionally-oriented ICOA program is organized around three major themes: intensification of processing methods, sustainability of supply chains, and innovation. It is also largely built around several project design and management exercises in which students are (i) required to design/develop new foods by integrating all the environmental components of the processes, (ii) respond to issues raised by industrial partners in relation to the development of bioproducts.
