| History |
| Bayburt University faculty of engineering was established by the council of ministers’ 5765 no. decision that was published in 31.05.2008 date and 26892 no. official gazette.
The programme of Food Engineering will be carried out within the Faculty of Engineering.
The programme of Food engineering consists of two department, food science and food technology.
Food industry is an important sector in terms of development of our country (Turkey). Developing of this sector is possible with education of qualified personnel who subsequent changes in science and technology. For this reason, food engineering degree programme that was established within the faculty of engineering, was re-prepared in parallel with developments in food science and technology, emphasized to applications and was taken industrialists desires into consideration.
Degree programme includes mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry sciences with fundamental engineering issues. This programme also includes laboratory and design experiments for laying graduates for implementing food engineering principles to current engineering problems.
Our department, by aspiring to transfer latest situation of technique to students through following closely all technological and academical development in related issues, will be among the leading food engineering departments of Turkey soon with studies.
