    As a food technologist myself, i sometimes find it hard to explain what i do at work, people would just think that we're chefs. This vid brought some understanding of the technicalities of the industry. Thanks tsl

      hi! i’m a senior and i really want to study food technology but what’s holding me back is the “chemistry” part of it which i know is a lot, but can i ask if the chem part of it is heavy on maths, and is it hard? i really hope u can answer, thank you!

      @Em-of3ej 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@jmarais Hello sorry for the late reply. It actually depends on the curriculum of the university that you're going to attend to. But most parts that you're going to tackle on Chemistry classes are already been discussed on your high school or senior high school classes such as, Molecular Formula, Periodic Tablle of Elements, Organic Chemistry etc. For me, it is not that hard (slight) because I'm fascinated by how Chemistry works and how it is applied into our society especially in foods. Hope this answer your questions!

      Do you think Food Technology is a satisfying job for most? And is the pay well? Currently, I'm a business administration student, but I feel like food science and technology would be a better route for me, as I am very interested in nutrition and the food industry; I'm also great at math. However, I am slightly concerned about the chemistry part; I am in a challenging school, and I remember struggling in chemistry in high school. I know I can get through it if I put my mind to it, but I'd just like to know how rigorous it typically is.
      Overall, would it be worth switching to? I want to pursue a career that I enjoy, which also provides financial stability and allows me to live a comfortable lifestyle.

    The problem with food technologists is that you care only about making the product for the industry. As a food scientist myself i have to say that food technology is only a tiny part of food science. We do food microbiology, biotechnology, human physiology, toxicity, molecular traceability, food engineering, processing and maintenance of by-products etc. Your field is very limited.
