FIPDes is an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master in food innovation and product design coordinated by AgroParisTech with TU Dublin, the University of Naples Federico II and Lund University, with KNUST (Ghana) offering a specialisation track. It trains professionals for international food innovation, from concept through prototype to packaged product, and has produced alumni from over 65 nationalities. It runs over two academic years and leads to a double or triple degree plus a joint FIPDes diploma.
Duration: 2 years (120 ECTS) | Study mode: Full-time; English | Location: Palaiseau, Île-de-France, France
The first year takes a holistic, cross-disciplinary approach to food innovation, combining scientific, technical, entrepreneurial and culinary knowledge, with sustainability and molecular gastronomy integrated. In the second year students choose one of four specialisations: Food Design & Engineering (AgroParisTech, France), Healthy Food Design (Naples, Italy), Food Packaging Design & Logistics (Lund, Sweden) or Tropical Food Processing & Quality Management (KNUST, Ghana), then complete an MSc thesis.
Graduates work in food innovation across research, product development and entrepreneurship, at corporate, SME or institutional level, in roles from consultant to CEO. 85% of alumni found a job within 6 months of graduation.
