Learn about this course
Ready to join us on a journey to revolutionise the world of postharvest technology? Our course on novel sensing technology and chemometrics is the perfect opportunity to learn how to detect and measure physical phenomena in fresh horticultural products, providing more detailed insights into their properties. By following this course, you can make further steps in using new sensing and chemometrics approaches for quality measurements and assessment of fresh horticultural products and make a real impact in reducing food waste. You will learn about the latest advancements in non-destructive sensing technologies. Next to that, in hands-on labs you will practice with these modern devices and tools. Join us and gain valuable knowledge and skills in this exciting field.
For who is this course fitting?
Are you a technical professional in the fresh produce supply chain? Are you involved in quality assurance, safety, logistics, research, or related activities? This course might be relevant for you.
Our focus on (postharvest) quality will equip you with the skills you need to excel in your field. We welcome learners from breeding, production, trade, retail, tech developers and equipment builders with a focus on smart sensors and data analytics for (postharvest) quality.
No prior knowledge of the course topics is required. Participants are required to bring their own laptop.
