Bachelor of Science - Nutritional Science

The BS program in Nutritional Science provides students with a strong foundation in nutrition, biological sciences, research methods, and prevention and treatment of health issues. The program has two different tracks, nutrition research or integrative nutrition.

The integrative nutrition track establishes a strong basis in evidence-based nutrition practices, nutritional interventions across the human lifespan, and both individualized and community approaches to improving human health. The track prepares students for careers in a variety of health care settings, including naturopathic medicine.

With the nutrition research track, students can expect to engage in coursework that integrates evidence-based nutrition with anatomy, physiology, chemistry and microbiology, to prepare for clinical or graduate research programs and careers in research. This track allows students to work alongside faculty while gaining hands-on experience in nutrition research.
