Welcome to the Module: Food Plant Technical Drawing
Dear Students,
Welcome to Food Plant Technical Drawing! This module will introduce you to the essential skills of interpreting and creating technical drawings used in the design and construction of food processing facilities. You will learn the principles of industrial drawing, layout representation, and equipment placement, all of which are critical for effective communication between engineers, food technologists, and plant designers.
By the end of this module, you will be able to prepare accurate and professional technical drawings that ensure functionality, safety, and compliance in food plant premises. These skills will equip you to actively contribute to the planning and design of modern food processing environments.
We look forward to engaging with you as you develop both the technical precision and creative insight required to transform design concepts into practical, industry-ready drawings.

This course introduces students to the principles, strategies, and regulatory frameworks of Food Defense, with a focus on developing and managing systems that protect the food supply chain from intentional contamination, adulteration, and other acts of food terrorism. It emphasizes the importance of proactive measures in safeguarding public health, maintaining consumer confidence, and ensuring compliance with national and international standards. Students will gain a strong foundation in risk assessment methods, vulnerability identification, mitigation strategies, regulatory requirements (e.g., 21 CFR 121, FSMA, PAS 96), and auditing practices in food defense. Through case studies, real-world scenarios, and group discussions, students will learn how to design, implement, monitor, and improve a Food Defense Management System (FDMS) aligned with industry best practices.
