The course contains significant information on using food science and technologies while primarily focusing on practical knowledge. The faculty: student ratio is approximately 1:30, but in technology, it is 1:20.

This is considered significant for associating the faculties to bond with their students, which makes it enjoyable for the students to understand the context.
