The Certificate in Seafood Science provides six courses, each providing their own certificate of completion. The program is designed to provide the basics related to seafood science, production, processing, safety and marketing. This includes marine and freshwater organisms and is not limited just to fish. The Certificate in Seafood Science is patterned after the very successful Washington State University's Certificate Program in Food Science.
The full Certificate of Proficiency in Food Science Certificate can be earned through successful completion of each of the six courses. The courses are each 7 weeks in length, are entirely on line and are taught sequentially over a years period and repeated each year so that a student may enter the program with any class and complete the program within one year. Each course consists of weekly units, reading assignments, some exercises and live chats. These courses are taught on a Pass or Fail basis and thus are not graded.
The courses are taught using an online program, which you can access 24/7 anywhere you have Internet access. The live chats are recorded and are also available 24/7 on line.
