The UPH Food Technology Team consisted of Riviana Susanto, Jessica Chandra, Christopher I. Rimba, and Marshal Nathan. UPH faced 12 teams from 7 universities, including Universitas Sriwijaya, Universitas Sumatera Utara, Universitas Pelita, Institute Pertanian Bogor, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Universitas Katolik Widaya Mandala Surabaya, and Universitas Mulawarman. Chosen as a winner at the national level, the UPH Team departed to represent Indonesia in the ASEAN level competition.

FIRST WINNER AT "3RD INDONESIAN FOOD BOWL QUIZ 2015"

The Indonesian Food Technology Association (PATPI) in collaboration with the Indonesian Food Care Student Association (HMPPI), again held the “3rd Indonesian Food Bowl quiz Competition”. The event consisted of seminar and talk show about food technology as well as quiz competition on food science, with the aim of creating togetherness between food technology students and raising awareness of food technology students on national food security.

UPH won the first place, after at the first and second Food Bowl Quiz winning first and second place. While their toughest opponents, IPB, won the second place and UGM won the third place. “We were very surprised. IPB, at the beginning, has scared us by sending 24 teams to advance at regional selection. But it turned out that, thank God, we managed to defeat them,” Sharon said.

THE 2ND WINNER IN THE NFTC 2014

The UPH Food Technology Team won 2nd place in the National Food Technology Competition (NFTC). The UPH team consisted of three Food Technology students of the 2011 class, namely Isabella Supardi, Sabrina Yoshe, and Valentina Jasmine. The team submitted a paper entitled Utilization of Cambodian Flower Sandalwood (Plumeria rubra f. Lutea) in ‘Herbal Tea’ products. The Winners got cash prize.

NFTC is a series of national level scientific workshops and competitions that focus on food issues in Indonesia. The theme raised at the year’s NFTC was “Increasing Food Security through Food Product Diversification”. This was motivated by the condition of Indonesia’s high population growth and if it was not anticipated it could lead to a food crisis. One of the prevention efforts was to strengthen food security through diversification of food products by utilizing various types of foodstuffs.
