Objectives
Objectives
The curricular unit of Gastrotechny has as its main objective the development of knowledge, attitudes, and skills acquired in the curricular units of History of Health and Contemporary Culture, Bromatology, Food and Human Nutrition I, Food and Human Nutrition II and the factors that influence choice and food safety, as well as their integration and application in a global perspective, based on the nutritional health model.
All actions aimed at providing the student with a critical and self-analytical spirit applied to all aspects of the program content will be valued.
The theoretical component will provide the necessary knowledge to subsequently calculate the nutritional composition of the various traditional and modified recipes that will be made. The preparation of recipes suitable for various pathological states and characteristics of different regions, cultures, and beliefs are also objectives of this course.
