B.S. in Human Nutrition and Food

Americans today are concerned about weight control, maintaining a healthy body, and practicing good nutritional habits for better health. Choosing human nutrition and food can be the beginning of a rewarding career. A bachelor's degree in Human Nutrition and Food emphasizes physical, biological, and social sciences; math and statistics; and nutrition and food.

A degree in human nutrition and food may become the foundation for graduate study. This degree also serves as an excellent premed option, pre-physical therapy option, or can be combined with a minor in a related field. Employment possibilities include jobs in food product development and management, Cooperative Extension Service, consumer education, sales and marketing, and public relations.

We also offer a Dietetics program and a Human Nutrition Minor.
