It is becoming increasingly apparent that nutrition plays a significant role in both health and disease. This programme aims to develop an understanding of the principles of nutrition and enables students to scientifically evaluate the links between diet, health and disease.
The programme will appeal to professionals within the food and nutrition industries as well as the health professionals who wish to complete the course as part of their continued professional development.
The programme will also be attractive to undergraduates with non-nutrition degrees who wish to move into the field of nutrition and those with nutrition related degrees wishing further their studies to gain a postgraduate qualification.
As the MSc in Human Nutrition is accredited by the Association for Nutrition (AfN), graduates of this course are entitled to direct entry to the UK Voluntary Register of Nutritionists (UKVRN). This allows graduates to use the letters "ANutr" after their name
