New online research course in food safety is available.

A new online course – Independent Research in Manufacturing Food Safety – will be offered for Spring semester.

The course combines laboratory research activities that provides students the opportunity to plan and conduct research. It also gives students hands-on experience in designing experiments, conducting research and preparing a research manuscript.

Students will work with the instructor and a participating faculty affiliate, who will mentor the students throughout the process.

By the end of the course, students will have a research poster and a manuscript ready for publication.

Each research project will be supported by a budget of up to $1,000 for supplies and research costs.

This course is open to all University of Nebraska-Lincoln graduate students and third- or fourth-year undergraduates. There is a maximum class enrollment of eight students. Open registration is underway and runs through Jan. 7, 2018.
