pasteurization Student: Louis Pasteur Department of Biological Science GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION Use this area to describe the overall goal of the project. My tasks as a UROP student Use this area to describe the tasks you were given by your supervisor. You may wish to use a bullet list, as shown below: This project aims to establish a process by which heat can be used on a liquid or a food to kill pathogenic bacteria to make the food safe to eat.

Remember that many of these skills may be transferable to other areas: Design pilot experiment Critique literature Report the findings Prepare experiment equipment Analyse data Run pilot experiment Soft skills or other transferable skills Use this area to reflect on other skills which you have gained in the tasks you have completed: Interview skills Time-management Preparing & delivering a presentation Working in a team Working independently Communication skills Networking What did you like best about your UROP placement and/or how will you use these skills?
