The University of Melbourne and the Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) will offer Master of Food and Packaging Innovation internships to students wanting to build their knowledge and experience in 2018.

The Masters course is a joint initiative between the University of Melbourne and the AIP, and trains students to be well-rounded professionals in the area of NPD as well as food packaging processes and design.

Students completing this two-year degree study food science, food safety, packaging materials and processes, packaging design, consumer behaviour, product innovation, entrepreneurship, business management, and marketing.

MFPI interns are highly motivated and ready to tackle whatever tasks you give them, according to the AIP.

For those companies keen to host an intern, they will be supporting industry development and future leaders of the food and food packaging sectors.
