Professors Lam Hood (Food Science), Spiro Stefanou (Agricultural Economics), and Barry Zoumas
(Warehime Professor of Agribusiness) are the course coordinators and facilitators. Industry mentors
provide an industry perspective to the teams' product development learning experiences. Other faculty
and food industry professionals (e.g. ingredient suppliers, research and development scientists, brand
managers, packaging specialists, production managers, etc.) serve as resources.

Support is provided by the Center for Academic Computing, a USDA Challenge Grant ("Transferring Experts' Reasoning to Novice Learners in Food Product Development"), and the College of Agricultural Sciences.
