The course is designed to provide all the first-year students majored in Marine Food Science with a general understanding of the topics which are important in the field of Fishery Science, with an emphasis on Marine Food Science. The course is sponsored by all the faculty members of the Department. Beside general introductions, the recent research works of the lecturers are also included. It offers students an opportunity to understand the content of the field of Marine Food Science and to have a better knowledge in their studying program through multiple and mutual discussions with faculty members.

The two-semester course focuses on subjects so called "classical analysis" in order to avert overlap between it and the course of instrumental analysis. Theories and details of gravimetric, titrimetric, electroanalytical, and spearative methods are introduced through lectures and hand-on experiments. Students are also instructed in the techniques of evaluating analytical data as well as solving equilibrium and stoichiometry problems. The major goal of the course is to provide students with a sound background in various chemical analysis and the ability to use and evaluate the relative merits and limitations of analytical methods.

The two-semester course is designed to teach the student operation skills in chemical analysis, treatment in analytical data, and austere working manner through hand-on experience. The laboratory work in the first semester includes basic laboratory skills, calibration of volumetric glassware, acid-base titrations, gravimetric methods of analysis, and complex-formation titrations. The work in the second semester emphasizes on precipitation titrations, oxidation-reduction titrations, electroanalytical methods, spectrophotometry and chromatography.

The aims of this course are to introduce the major basic concepts of food processing including general processing methods, chemical and physical property changes of food material during processing. Topics covered in part(I) are thermal process, refrigeration and food freezing, food dehydration and concentration, food food fermentation, food irradiation and microwave process. In part(II), special emphasis are focused on individual food processing products, fats and oil, fruits and vegetables, cereal products, food additives, as wel as water and waste management in the food industry.
This course provides an introduction to microbiology for the students who will be major in food science and associated fields. It includes the topics of introduction of microorganisms, microbial growth and metabolism, control of microorganisms, viruses microbial genetics, diversity of the microbial world, nature of symbiotic association, fundamental of immunology, microorganisms and the environment, and food and industrial microbiology.
Two times (3 hours) a week, this experimental course is given two semesters in each year. The course is conducted initially from the operations of sterilization and smearing of microorganisms. The students are instructed to facilitate the tests for identification of bacteria to genus levels, and the basic techniques of microbiological tests. In first semester, students will practice to cultivate, observe, and carry out some biochemical tests. In second semester, they will examine bacteria associated with food sanitation, and microorganisms in seawater.
This is a comprehensive course. The objective of the course is to offer students a foundation in the basic of modern biochemically related areas. These include molecular biology, molecular genetics, protein, lipid, carbohydrate, metabolism, biophysics and cell biology. The course emphasizes the development of independent research studies and to complement the training in their respective disciplines.
The course is designed to teach students with principles as well as practical techniques of analyzing food components. The course covers: Moisture, ash, crude protein, and crude lipid determinations of food; lipid extraction, peroxide value (POV) and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value measurement; volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and K value of fishery raw materials; chemical oxygen dissolubility (COD) of waste; pH water capacity of protein; electrophoresis of water and salt soluble protein; Calorimetry of food; chromatographic methods including high-pressure liquid of nucleotides, organic acids, and saccharides, gas chromatography of fatty acids, thin-layer chromatography of tetradotoxin and pesticide; and antibiotic detection.
