    BSc Programs in Nutrition

    A Bachelor of Science is degree that usually takes four years to complete and allows students to focus on a specific area of study. The degree can require the complement of general study courses in addition to courses related to the focus. Usually centered on a technical field of study, it can be a good choice for a student looking to go into science or math.

    What is a BSc in Nutrition? Since nutrition is the study of how various foods consumed can have different benefits and effects on the body, students will typically focus on human metabolism, the biochemistry of nutrients, and human nutritional fundamentals. Coursework can often include internship work as well as traditional classroom assignments. Some students may focus on a particular aspect of nutrition, such as community nutrition or sports nutrition.

    An understanding of nutrition can help students in their personal lives by teaching them how to make eating decisions that provide the proper nutrients for their bodies. They may also be better informed about how to stay in shape and prevent medical issues that would result from not taking care of themselves.

    Students may find that prices vary from school to school. The cost of taking courses toward a BSc can depend on whether the student completes the necessary credits within a four-year period.

    A BSc in Nutrition will typically prepare graduates to work as registered dieticians or nutrition consultants who work to help people make healthy eating decisions. There may be other career options available such as community nutritionist, home health care aide, or dietetic technician. Many of these jobs can involve communicating and working closely with individuals in order to help them improve their health and well-being.
