Salah Eldin Mahgoub, PhD

Being a Certified Food Scientist (CFS), professional member of the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT, USA), and Fulbright scholar with international work experience, I am able to bring many perspectives to the educational journey. As a Fulbright Fellow at Iowa State University in Ames, I conducted research on food security and have been a university professor at the University of Botswana, Botswana, University of Khartoum, Sudan, University of Ahfad for Women, Sudan, an adjunct professor at Kaplan University, and now an adjunct professor at Bay Path University. At Kaplan I taught courses in food science, and human nutrition in relation to health. At Bay Path, I am teaching courses in food microbiology.

I am a critical thinker with proven experience in food science, food processing, genetically modified foods, functional foods and nutrition in relation to various consumer issues. Additionally, I am an experienced researcher, team leader and effective team player, with a proven track record on developing products from concept to shelf and the impact they have on consumer preferences.

I've published a book on genetically modified foods, and written 34 articles and conference proceedings in peer reviewed journals. I also have presented and participated in 42 conferences and workshops globally.

One interesting fact related to my teaching assignments is that the majority of the student groups I taught were female. At Ahfad University, all students were female, at the University of Botswana, department of family and consumer sciences- all students were female, at Kaplan University the majority of students were female, and at Bay Path University the majority of students are female.
