Once you have enough experience in your area and if you like academic life, you could go on to teach Food Science and Technology or Engineering at a school or university.

You might teach classes, research at national and international levels and interact with people from different fields of study and different countries. You could obtain postings or consultancies overseas, and gain opportunities to contribute to the development of your area of research specialisation.

In time, you would likely be responsible for supervising the research of undergraduate and postgraduate students. This job would suit someone with patience, interest and commitment to research and a keen interest in teaching modern concepts to bright young students.
