Accreditation Renewal from IUFoST for the Bachelor of Food Science & Technology program

IUFoST is the global federation of national scientific organisations representing more than 300,000 food scientists and technologists from over 75 countries. It has five regional groupings: ALACCTA representing Central and South America, EFFoST representing Europe, FIFSTA representing the ASEAN region, MENAFoST representing the Middle East and North Africa, and WAAFoST representing West Africa. IUFoST’s mission is to stimulate the ongoing exchange of knowledge in those scientific disciplines and technologies relating to the expansion, improvement, distribution, and conservation of the world's food supply.

Since 2016, our Bachelor of Food Science and Technology has been accredited by the International Union of Food Science and Technology (IUFoST) as having met international standards and guidelines for outcome-based programs.

Monash Malaysia is the first private tertiary institution in the country to have received such accreditation. Approval of the accreditation was based on our course content and quality, which was assessed by interaction with the local food industry, government, and non-government organizations (NGOs).

With this we are proud to announce that in 2022  the accreditation of the Bachelor of Food Science and Technology program has been renewed by IUFoST.

Associate Professor Siow Lee Fong, Head of Discipline, Food Science and Technology had represented the School of Science, Monash University Malaysia to receive the accreditation certificate in Singapore at the 2022 IUFoST 21^st World Congress of Food Science and Technology.
