| Nutrition is the scientific study of nutrients and other substances in food, and how they affect our growth, health and disease. A nutritionist may apply their knowledge in a wide variety of careers such as public health nutrition, sports and exercise nutrition, food nutrition or nutrition science. Nutritionists may develop and evaluate nutrition policies and campaigns to improve the population’s health; apply physiological, biochemical and nutritional principles to the management of diet and performance in athletes; deal with ingredients, allergens, policy and legislation when developing or reformulating food and drink products; or study metabolic and physiological responses of the human body to food and nutrients. In fourth year, a 12-week placement and research project provides the opportunity to specialise in the areas that interest you most and enhance your employability. |
