Registration for the* Risk Analysis Summer Integrated Program June 3rd -
28th, 2019 *is open through may 27th.   If space is available, late
applications will be accepted.



The Joint Institute for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (JIFSAN)
<http://jifsan.umd.edu/about/> was established between the United States
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the University of Maryland (UM) in
April 1996. The Institute is a jointly administered, multidisciplinary
research, education and outreach program.

The Institute fosters the missions of FDA and the University through the
creation of partnerships to increase the quantity and quality of research,
which will provide the basis for sound public health policy.  It promotes
food safety, human nutrition, and animal health and production through
integrated research, education, and outreach programs.  Opportunities exist
for collaborative projects with Federal and state agencies, private
industry, consumer and trade groups, and international organizations with
mutual interests.

The increasing emphasis on risk-based decision making and the increasingly
global nature of the food supply have resulted in the use of risk analysis
to systematically address food safety issues worldwide. This has created a
need to educate food safety and other public health professionals about the
principles of food safety risk analysis and the tools and techniques
required to apply this approach.

JIFSAN offers in classroom, online courses to meet your professional needs
