Learning outcomes: Knowledge: After passing the course the student will understand the role of principal biochemical and microbiological changes that occur during handling, storage and processing of milk and dairy products. He knows modern technologies in dairy industry (in cheese and butter production and in whey processing) and the meaning of hygiene and quality control in dairy industry. On completion of the course the student will know the rules of poultry production, including the systems of keeping and feeding layer hens with respect to production chain, good practices and legal requirements. He/she will know the structure, chemical composition, functional qualities, storage and processing technologies of egg products. Moreover, he/she will know the processes applied in isolation of biologically active substances from egg matter and the possibilities of their practical application. Skills: The student is prepared to supervise technological processes and to manage quality in dairy industry. The student who has completed the course can assess the quality of egg raw materials, may help and participate in preparation of a technological project on egg processing. The student will also be able to manage technological processes.

Competences: Social skills (Attitude): The student who has completed the course can assess the quality of egg raw materials, may help and participate in preparation of a technological project on egg processing. The student will also be able to manage technological processes.
