About Dairy Technology

The Department of Dairy Technology is a cornerstone of the College of Dairy Technology, Udgir, established in 2008. This department plays a pivotal role in undergraduate teaching, research, and extension activities. Adhering to the recommendations of the Sixth Dean Committee, the department is well-equipped with five laboratories. The department has earned national acclaim for its scientific contributions, with faculty and students receiving prestigious honors such as the IDA Best Poster Awards and prizes at the National Dairy Products Judging Contest. A key highlight of the department is the Mini Experimental Dairy Plant, designed to provide hands-on training in milk processing. The plant has an installed capacity of 50 liters per hour and is equipped with facilities for homogenization, pasteurization, and milk packaging. Students gain practical experience operating the plant and using departmental equipment, ensuring they graduate with invaluable skills.

Mission

  • The focus is on enhancing dairy technology education through interactive e-learning.
  • Career guidance to students in areas like R&D, quality assurance, and innovation, with additional insights provided by industry experts.
  • Research efforts will target the development of functional dairy products and the utilization of by-products like whey.
  • Collaborations with research institutions will address industry challenges, with findings shared through publications and conferences to maximize impact.
  • Extension activities will involve training farmers on best practices in milk utilization, supporting small-scale processing units, and promoting sustainable dairy operations through the creation of audiovisual materials and an online platform offering technical support.
