Module SAFETY OF MACHINES AND SYSTEMS

Academic Year 2022/2023 - Teacher: LUCIANO CARUSO

Expected Learning Outcomes

Providing students with the knowledge needed for the monitoring and management of the main systems for the food processing. Convey the knowledge to both the assessment of the safety aspects and wellness of staff at the workplace, that the training techniques, protection and prevention for the reduction of risks from the use of machines and systems in the agro-food sector .

Course Structure

Lectures and exercises (classroom and company), also on line

If teaching is done in mixed or remote mode, specific changes to the program may need to be made.
