About the Club

The purpose of the Food Product Development Club shall be to structure, encourage, and guide students through the process of food product development competitions. These competitions encompass real job experiences leading to practicing and implementing skills learned during their coursework. Students will grow in their knowledge as well as build their network with other universities and companies for future job opportunities. Furthermore, food product development encourages involvement from other students of various majors. Thus we aim to educate the club member base at the University of Florida about the opportunities they could receive through national food product development competitions.
