营养和食品科学计划的重点是食品的化学和生物成分以及这些成分影响健康的方式。学生将学习食物的化学，生物，微生物，营养，工程和经济方面，以及人们食用的食物对社会的影响，包括它们如何影响经济，心理和文化等各种问题。近年来，关于食品如何直接影响人们的健康，对营养和食品科学方面的专业人员的需求越来越大。公众已经开始意识到均衡饮食是多么重要。这意味着营养职业的机会是空前的。
The nutrition and food science program focuses on the chemical and biological components of food and the ways in which these ingredients affect health. Due to an increased awareness in recent years of how food directly affects the population’s health, there is a greater demand for professionals trained in nutrition and food science. The general public has begun to realize just how important it is to eat well-balanced meals. This means that the opportunities for careers in nutrition are at an all-time high. Students learn the chemical, biological, microbiological, nutritional, engineering and economic aspects of food, as well as the social impacts of the foods people eat, including how they affect various issues, including economy, psychology, and culture.
