Is b.tech in food technology more deals with chemistry and biology?

Hello Aspirant,

Yes , BTech Food Technology deals a lot with chemistry and biology because the syllabus of this course deals with various topics  like  food preservation, constituents , nutritional value of Food , Food processing , Food Biochemistry  ,Biochemistry of processing and preservation ,Food microbiology and various other topics which includes basic knowledge of Chemistry and Biology.

You should not worry about this even if you are not very strong in these subjects as you only need basic understanding(class 11 and 12) and you will have a sufficient  time to learn chemistry and biology during your course .

Hope this helps.

Hey Aspirant,
