Nutrition and Food Science (Combined BS\/MS)<\/h2>\n

The graduate program in Nutrition and Food Science provides students with in-depth study of nutrition science, nutrition education, food and nutrition issues, food regulations and compliance, and nutrition counseling. It prepares professionals for careers in nutrition and wellness, healthcare, education and research, food and nutrition administration, nutrition policy, food production, food safety and regulations, and food and nutrition management. Special note: This program does not prepare students to become Registered Dietitians. Students who are interested in obtaining the status of Registered Dietitian can\u00a0learn more about the Didactic Program in Dietetics<\/a>. Students can complete the MS in Nutrition and Food Science and the Didactic Program in Dietetics simultaneously, with some courses from the master’s program substituting for courses in the Didactic Program. In order to be in the combined program, prospective students must apply to each program separately.<\/p>\n
