“There are a lot of opportunities for students to get involved in research—which was a great hands-on supplement to coursework, especially with Illinois Tech’s partnership with the Food and Drug Administration. �糵���� is also a great city to be in for working the food industry because Institute of Food Technologists is headquartered here, and there are a lot of food companies located in the �糵����land area/Midwest.”

Gina Oberoi (B.S. BCHM/M.A.S. FST ’18)

“I had great experience at Illinois Tech. I could do much more than just gain academic knowledge. I was able to participate and lead in student activities such as founding the food science club, getting elected as area rep for Midwest Region of Institute of Food Technologists Student Association student body, and many other IFT events. This led to an overall personality development and confidence that has helped me in achieving success.” 

Neeraj Kamath (M.S. FPE ’16)

“Illinois Tech has an intensive and challenging food science curriculum, with faculty to boast of alongside the ability to work for the United States Food and Drug Administration—which is a key point to think of. Additionally, great mentors and associates make the food science journey memorable. Its vast resources can very well be taken into account, considering the Institute for Food Safety and Health library and online portal that makes accessing journals and research articles convenient and rapid.”
