Currently the Faculty is involved in effective cooperation with numerous international and national corporations. More than 45 contracts and agreements, signed since 1994, offer important scientific and didactic effects as well as considerable material effects. The Faculty implemented numerous projects within the international scientific, research, educational and development programmes such as PHARE, TEMPUS, INCO-COPERNICUS, LEONARDO ERASMUS.
Establishment and financing by the European Union of Warmia and Mazury Dairy Excellence Center WAMADAIREC is a major success of the Faculty of Food Sciences.
The Faculty, together with WAMADAIREC and within the frameworks of its scientific and organizational-didactic activity cooperates with the National and Regional Contact Points organizing numerous national and international training events, workshops and conferences. Exchange of students Implementing its tasks aiming at improvement of education process improvement, the Faculty of Food Sciences students participate in the ERASMUS program, which results in numerous scholarships in the European Union countries. In total more than 150 students and Ph.D. students benefited during the years 1999-2015.
