Almaty Technological University, Faculty of Food Technologies

In the modern world, a «Technologist» in a broad sense is a specialist responsible for the stages of production and the sequence of production of products. The very concept of technology came to us from the ancient Greek language. In ancient times, the technological process of making tools and improvised tools was used. Now food technologies in Kazakhstan are almost completely automated, put on stream in production. However, there remains a need for qualified technologists who monitor the high-quality and competent execution of technological processes. Which university should I choose to master the profession of technologist? The article below provides an overview on this topic.

Almaty Technological University, Faculty of Food Technologies

A modern technologist must acquire knowledge of product quality control from the moment of receipt of raw materials to the finished product, as well as be able to develop and implement innovative technological processes in production.

The faculty has departments in the following areas:

  • In the field of food biotechnology, work is underway to create products for therapeutic, preventive and general purposes. Graduates of this field can work in the processing, food and medical industries; pharmaceutical companies; engage in agricultural, educational and scientific activities.
  • In the field of food technology, the Faculty of Food Technology allows you to get in-demand professions in several areas.
