DIRECTION OF TRAINING

260100 Plant foods

Profile"Technology of fermentation production and winemaking". Qualification- bachelor. Graduating Department "Special Chemical Technology". Why do you need to go to study to get the profession of a technologist in this profile of training exactly at UGAES? The answer is obvious, since today in the republic only our university actively and fruitfully cooperates with industry enterprises and leading research institutes that conduct research in the field of developing new food products and improving technology. Together with outstanding scientists, authors of generally recognized textbooks, reference books and standards that are used daily at all enterprises in the industry, teachers of the Department of Special Chemical Technology, which trains bachelors in this direction, create new textbooks and manuals on the technology of alcoholic and non-alcoholic balms, syrups, carbonated drinks, alcoholic beverages and functional food. Annually in the all-Russian scientific and practical journals "Production of alcohol and alcoholic beverages", "Beer and drinks", "News of universities. Food technologies”, “Distillery production and winemaking”, the works of teachers of our department are published. The department annually carries out scientific research under the Grants of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Bashkortostan, senior students and graduate students of the department participate in these works. The results of their work are highly appreciated by society, our students have repeatedly become laureates of competitions for scientific works and have been awarded diplomas of various competitions, they are the owners of prizes and awards.

Your profession

There are no trifles in food production. Any deviation from the recipe and violation of technology can lead not only to the rejection of a whole batch of products, but also cause irreparable harm to the health of the consumer. Whatever specific food production enterprise a technologist would work, by and large, his duties are the same everywhere: to prevent and solve all problems that may arise at various stages of food production. He monitors compliance with the sequence and quality of operations that make up the process of preparing products. The technologist also monitors the condition of the equipment, the quality of raw materials and semi-finished products, the sanitary condition of the apparatus and premises. Equipment breakdown, unforeseen delay in the supply of raw materials, insufficient packaging - any of these situations can have a deplorable effect on the quality of the product. The ultimate goal of the food industry technologist is to ensure high quality food products and preserve people's health. In general, a food production technologist is one of those positions for which professional education is the main selection criterion. Unlike a salesperson who needs persuasiveness and sociability, or a PR person whose activity depends on 70% of creativity, a technologist must clearly know why walnuts cannot be added to chocolates and what will happen to young wine if it is put on the shelves without aging in shops. To obtain this knowledge, students undergo not only theoretical training in classrooms and laboratories of the academy, but also in the production workshops of industry enterprises. Already from the first year, laboratory work and research are provided, thanks to which students get acquainted with the basics of the profession. Industrial practice is an integral part of the training of technologists.

Career and salary

Today, the profession of a food production technologist is one of the most in demand in the labor market. Although there are a fairly large number of universities that train specialists in this field, however, many of their graduates prefer to work in other areas, because. There is an opinion that career opportunities for technologists are limited, and the level of wages is much lower than, for example, for graduates of economic specialties. In fact, due to the shortage that has developed over the 90s, a century has passed in the labor market for technologists, the demand for them exceeds the supply. Therefore, in large companies, the level of salaries of graduates-technologists is not inferior to the level of salaries of economists, and professional and career growth is often more dynamic. A recent university graduate comes to production as a foreman or junior technologist. Then successively goes through the following stages of growth: technologist, senior shift technologist, chief technologist. The top of the career ladder is the head of production.
