Major in Nutrition Science (26-28 credits)

Nutrition science is excellent preparation for individuals pursuing a medical or health related career, or graduate programs in exercise physiology, food science or nutrition. This major builds on the basic sciences and provides opportunities to explore nutrition in depth through research.

These skills are imperative for students advancing to graduate programs or entering professions where staying on the cutting edge of practice requires the continual critical evaluation of published research.
