Enabling students to understand, research, advance and manage development and application of food industry machines, processing, packaging and transport of food products, as well as technological processes and operations in food production with specific characteristics of this production industry and equipment and machines used in it.

Acquiring knowledge in the selected groups of food industry machines, recognizing and understanding of technological processes and operations in the production and processing of food, connecting the needs of technological processes and characteristics of food industry machines, knowing contemporary trends and specific development of the equipment in the production, processing, packaging and transport of food, ability for independent and team research and development of food production machines and their fitting into technological processes.

Subject includes the following modules which are chosen according to students interests: food industry machines and processing and operation equipment: liquid materials transport, solid materials transport, material fragmentation, material separation, material mixing, heat transmission, material concentration, crystallization, drying, rectification, adsorption and absorption, extraction, packaging, storing and transport of food product.

The lecturer choses, together with the student, one or more modules, depending on the magnitude and the interconnection of modules. The lecturer organizes the consultations with the students and, depending on the student number and the interconnection of chosen modules, the lecturer keeps lectures with the purpose of transmitting practical and theoretical knowledge relevant for most of the students. The student studies proposed literature and scientific journals to independently enlarge achieved knowledge and, through the consultations with the lecturer, gets the skill how to write scientific papers.
