Basics of Food Technology

Bala introduces food technology from composition through microorganisms and processing. The course connects the roles of carbohydrates, proteins and fats with food properties, then considers beneficial and harmful microorganisms and preservation methods. Its compact format provides a map of the field rather than specialist training in one manufacturing process.

What you will learn

• Recognize food-composition concepts
• Distinguish broad microbial roles in food
• Review introductory processing and preservation methods

Who this suits

A fit for a beginner curious about food science who wants an accessible overview before choosing more detailed chemistry, microbiology or processing study.

Before you enroll

No strict prerequisites, specialist tools or previous biology knowledge are required. About one hour and 34 minutes of video are listed, updated September 2025. General explanations are educational; they do not establish safe processing times, product shelf life or regulatory compliance for a real food business.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Create a concept map connecting one familiar food’s composition with its texture and preservation context. Mark the questions that require more evidence rather than turning a broad lecture example into a production recipe.
