INSTITUTE OF FOOD TECHNOLOGISTS (IFT)

Founded in 1939, the Institute of Food Technologists is a nonprofit scientific society with 22,000 members working in food science, food technology, and related professions in industry, academia, and government. 

IFT publishes various resources for the food industry, including Food Technology and the Journal of Food Science. IFT also conducts the world's largest annual convention on food grown, processed, manufactured, distributed, and eaten worldwide:  the IFT Annual Meeting & Food Expo SM.

As the authoritative voice of food science and technology, IFT contributes to public policy and opinion at national, state, and local levels. IFT's Office of Science, Communications, and Government Relations advocates the scientific perspective on food science and technology issues.

Through the IFT Foundation, IFT supports programs such as undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, science-based communications to media and policy makers, career guidance programs, and food science awards.
