Are you interested in developing new food and nutrition solutions to optimise health and prevent and treat disease? Would you like to know how a health food product goes from being just an idea to being launched in the market? And would you like to be involved in creating commercially viable foods that are both tasty and healthy? Then Health Food Innovation Management (HFIM) is the programme for you. The programme is offered at Campus Venlo. Teaching is provided by academic experts and by professionals from the international food and beverage industry. In order to prepare you for careers in the industry, we will not only teach theories, but also put these into practice on business-to-business food fairs. These international fair visits are embedded in the curriculum. They provide you with the opportunity to facilitate your work on health food innovations, create business networks and open new perspectives on new health food -and business opportunities.

You get factual knowledge, but you also learn how to collaborate, present or how to set up a research project. Practical and subject-oriented skills training are amply discussed.
