The speakers systematically presented information regarding the curriculum structure, the course selection flow, academic requirements, the MLPS administration procedure, and the technical implementation and reporting of Work Practice.
In the presentation session, it was explained that the curriculum was designed to support the competencies of graduates in the field of food science and technology, with an emphasis on strengthening hard skills, soft skills, as well as students’ readiness to face industry and research. Meanwhile, MLPS provides learning flexibility that allows students to develop competencies according to their interests and career plans.
