LiFT courses and mentorship
The industrial block is designed to increase the doctoral student’s understanding of industrial working methods. So-called programme-specific courses are also organised at all university locations as needed.
The industrial course block in the graduate school consists of five theoretical courses. It is , mandatory for LiFT doctoral students to take four courses of their choice:
- The Swedish Food Industry
- Regulatory and Ethical Aspects of Food Production and Consumption
- Innovation Strategy, Entrepreneurship, and Project Management
- The Consumer Perspective on Food
- Sustainable, Resilient and Circular Food Systems
Mentorship
Continuous contact with the industry to create an understanding of industrial issues and industrial thinking is an important part of the LiFT graduate school. To achieve this, all LiFT doctoral students have an industrial mentor.
