When you choose to study Foods and Nutrition, you will study a wide range of concepts surrounding nutrition, while diving into the impact the food industry has on our global world. Analyze societal determinants of health, research the chemical composition of food, or explore how cultures can influence food habits – in our Foods and Nutrition program, you decide! Under the guidance of your award-winning professors, you will evaluate nutritional merits of food products while increasing your research and critical thinking skills. Your understanding of foods and nutrition will be enhanced through a variety of enlightening courses, including: Fundamentals of Community Nutrition, Food Production Management, Nutrition Education and Communication, and Agriculture and Food Systems.
Did you know the Foods and Nutrition experience reaches far beyond the walls of the classroom? You have an opportunity to work with local farmers and food manufacturers to discover food industries and gain hands on experience with food production. Or, you can get involved in clubs to network with students like yourself in FRESH (Food Resources and Education for Student Health) and Nutrition Ignition. There, you will not only build your network with your peers and academic professors, but you will gain connections with professionals in your field. As part of our Foods and Nutrition program students also have the option to study the module Nutrition & Dietetics which is accredited by the Partnership for Dietetic Education and Practice (PDEP).
