Description
The enjoyment of food, as well as the acceptance of flavors in pharmaceutical and other products, is closely related to the senses, especially taste, aroma and texture. Sensory evaluation is a dynamic field concentrating on the utilization of humans for the measurement of sensory perceptions and/or their effect on food and taste acceptance.

This course is designed to assist you as you select, conduct, analyze and interpret sensory evaluation methods. This approach will be practical with lecture, laboratory and problem-solving sessions. You will learn about sensory physiology, method selection, discriminative and descriptive testing, preference/acceptance testing and statistical analysis of data. An important feature of the course is the laboratory/ demonstration sessions in which you will participate.
