Ohio State’s PhD in Food Science and Technology explores the science behind food production, flavor, preservation, and health. Students investigate microbial safety, packaging, sensory science, and functional foods while collaborating with industry partners and USDA labs. The program prepares graduates to lead R&D, academic research, and innovation in global food systems.
