Nutrition is one of the biggest factors influencing health – the more we know about food, the more we can do to improve lives around the world. At King’s, you can immerse yourself in cutting-edge research in everything from public health to eating disorders, then put together your own research project in your final year.
With modules covering specialist topics in related subjects, you’ll develop a broad knowledge suitable for any career in the field. And with practical lab sessions and work placement opportunities, you’ll have the experience and confidence to stand out.
The Nutritional Sciences BSc degree is a research- led course that provides students with an in-depth knowledge of all key aspects of nutrition and fosters an understanding of the influence of food intake on human health. This course will also equip students with fundamental skills in critical analysis, information technology and communication.
I chose to study a BSc in Nutritional Sciences because it provides a comprehensive overview on the importance of dietary habits on human health.
The course is accredited by The Association for Nutrition, which means graduates may register as associate nutritionists on the UK Voluntary Register of Nutritionists, a body which aims to regulate the professional practice of nutrition.
