Syllabus: Provide information and discussion on ethics, professionalism, team work, communication and job application skills. This unit requires a student to carry out an in-depth study of the assigned industry including products made for a cleaning regime (Good Manufacturing Practice) and food safety aspects (HACCP). Students are assigned a project during a three week placement, which is part of the final report. This unit requires that students undertake a professional placement for three weeks within a food manufacturing company. Therefore a certain level of competency in professional skills and knowledge is required before a student can work safely and effectively in an industrial setting and achieve the learning outcomes of the unit. Students must have completed all units prior to year three in the Bachelor of Science (Food Safety and Technology), semester one prior to taking this unit.
