Course overview
The Covid-19 pandemic has exposed a fragile global food system. It has highlighted changes in consumer demands, and a need to rapidly develop food sustainability. You may be interested in empowering healthy communities. You may want to be part of building a sustainable global food system. We'll prepare you to take on these challenges in the post-pandemic world.
Nutrition explores how the body processes nutrients and the impact of this on health. Many diseases are influenced by diet, such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity and certain cancers.
You'll use the latest research to understand global nutrition challenges. Our nutrition course combines nutritional biochemistry, practical techniques and physiology. You'll study the drivers of food choice and eating behaviour. Advanced modules in human nutrition will cover public health nutrition and nutrient-gene interactions.
You'll use our specialist labs and work on real-life research projects.
You'll examine sustainable nutrition and look at this as part of global food security
Working on evidence-based nutrition, you'll use research to understand and identify fake nutritional news
Work with leading nutrition scientists to solve the most urgent nutrition issues facing society
Nutritionists can work in:
the food industry
public health nutrition
the NHS
education
journalism
Graduate destinations have included:
Nutrition Educator at Gloucestershire Hospitals
NHS Foundation Trust
Meal Prep Nutritionist at Clean Cut Kitchen
Research Support Officer in Diabetes Centre at University Hospitals Leicester
There are growing career opportunities in sustainable and global nutrition, working for NGOs and third sector organisations.
Some of our graduates seek to support healthy diets using nutrition in the health services. Our graduates work as Registered Associate Nutritionists in a range of medical specialisms, including mental health services and diabetes care.
The strong nutritional biochemistry focus of this degree prepares graduates well for direct entry into doctoral study. Many of our graduates go on to take a PhD in nutrition, public health or food science.
