Opportunities

Dr. Almenar accepts undergraduate students into her research group who have either taken one of her food packaging courses. These courses are linked below:

PKG455 - food packaging

PKG456 - packaging and shelf life of perishables

She will also accept those who are committed to take one of these during research or immediately after. This is to ensure a good fit for both sides, as those students who want to learn about food packaging will likely produce the best research and will have the most benefit from such a research project. If you are interested enough in food packaging to sign up for one of these classes, you are welcome to join the research team.

There is currently an open position for a graduate student click on "Graduate" for more details.
