Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 DISTAM (Department of Food Science and Microbiology) was established in 1985 within the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Milan, in response to the growing demand of research and teaching in the field of food sciences. DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 OUR MISSION: to implement education and research in order to provide a safe, nutritious, and affordable food supply that enhances human health. DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 THE STAFF is composed of 54 professors and researchers, 32 technicians and 11 administrative employees. The experience of the academic staff covers many aspects related to food science and applied microbiology. DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 TEACHING ACTIVITIES The 54 DISTAM teaching personnel contributes to several graduation courses of the Faculty of Agriculture, 1st LEVEL GRADUATION Food Science & Technology, Viticulture and Oenology, Biotechnology, Science of Nutrition. 2nd LEVEL GRADUATION Food Science & Technology, Biotechnology, Quality and Safety of food. PHD in Food Biotechnology DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 Beside a Master program in Food Quality Assurance and a PhD course in Food Biotechnology, continuing education programmes are organised by DISTAM for industry technicians and managers. Exchanges of students and young researchers are now increasing with the support of the ERASMUS and TEMPUS programmes of the European Community and as a result of the connections between DISTAM and research centres abroad. DISTAM - UNIVERSITY OF MILAN

Responding to S&T co-operation with China – The Development of a Cross-Border Agro-Food Processing S&T Platform December 2004 FACILITIES The research groups are supported by the normal facilities of chemical and biochemical research laboratories, and specialised equipment including electron microscopes, electro focusing separators, capillary electrophoresis, ATP detectors, electrochemical devices, sensors biosensors, electronic noses, microcalorimeters, circular dichroism, spectrophotomers, etc. Facilities on site include a sensory evaluation laboratory and a food processing hall with small plant equipment.
