About This Opportunity

The Advanced Food Enginomics Research Scholarship supports commencing PhD students to conduct research into sensors for smart food packaging at the University of Sydney. The Centre for Advanced Food Enginomics (CAFE) was established at the University of Sydney in 2017 with the aim of meeting food and health challenges of the 21st century by creating and delivering nutritious and wholesome processed foods to improve human well-being. The scholarship is offered for two specific research projects: Project A focuses on Sensor Design for Food Safety, Quality and Traceability, while Project B addresses Food Sensors Integrated in the Internet of Things (IoT). This project is funded by the Australian Research Council for collaborative research with an international company.
