Bachelor of Science - Nutrition

Nutrition is the study of nutrients-carbohydrate, protein, fat, vitamins and minerals-that are essential for life. Nutrition students learn how these nutrients are ingested, digested, absorbed, metabolized, stored and excreted. Nutrition also involves the study of food availability and how the nutrition choices we make can affect our health.
