Course abstract
Students acquire knowledge on grain chemical composition, properties and evaluation criteria. Obtain the basics of grain processing products and bread production, physical, biochemical and microbiological processes during production. Acquire knowledge about the causes of various product defects and prevention options. In the laboratory work students acquire practical skills in quality control of grain, flour and other raw materials and in the production of bread and special products.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
Knowledge and understanding of the chemical composition of grains, their properties, technological processes and quality of grain processing products and bread production. Is able to explain the most important concepts and regularities of the grain processing industry - lectures, 1 .; 2 .; 3. 4. test.
Skills to know and use quality assessment methods in the grain processing process and bread production. To perform the necessary calculations to ensure the bread production process and to work independently or in a work group, performing bread control biscuits - independent work, 8 laboratory works.
Competence to be able to creatively and independently organize the technological process of grain processing products and bread production. Ability to orientate and know the raw materials used in the grain processing industry, to analyze the trends of technological process improvement and development. Ability to develop constructive food solutions and make the necessary adjustments in the technological process - laboratory work and independent work.

Requirements for awarding credit points
Test with a mark is obtained if:
•8 laboratory works have been worked on and defended;
•developed and defended independent work;
•successfully (at least 4 points) written four tests.
Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work
The student independently develops his own bread recipe, describes the cooking technology, performs nutrient calculations, practically bakes and evaluates bread samples in the laboratory. The results of the independent work are summarized and described - in the form of a Word document (up to 15 pages) and a presentation is prepared (up to 10 slides).
Preparation for the defense of 8 laboratory works and four tests.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
The evaluation of the study course depends on the cumulative evaluation of tests, laboratory work and independent work.
A student with a successful grade on the test can get it if at least 50% of the questions are answered and explained correctly.
The test mark is calculated as the arithmetic mean of the marks of the tests, defended laboratory and independent works taken in the study course.
