Food Pavilion: food production where students learn
The Agricultural Products Processing Training Centre. Here students process meat and milk, bake, brew beer and press oils and fruit juice in real operation. You can buy the products in our shop.
About the project
A unique training centre on the CZU campus
The Food Pavilion, officially the Agricultural Products Processing Training Centre, was opened by the Faculty of Agrobiology, Food and Natural Resources on 28 June 2022. Inspired by the principles of science incubators, it serves students and the general public.
Students learn the whole food production chain here: from obtaining raw materials through technological processing to bringing the finished product to market. In practical classes they process meat, milk, cereals, oilseeds, fruit, vegetables and medicinal and aromatic plants.
- Real food production workplaces linking teaching with practice
- Raw materials from the CZU farm, gardens and orchards
- Products under the Um! brand in the shop and restaurant
