The BS in Nutrition with a concentration in Applied Nutrition is ideal for those individuals who are interested in working in the field of nutrition in non-clinical settings. The curriculum gives students the opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills in nutritional assessment and support techniques that target groups of people within a community and not just individuals. Graduates are prepared to develop, manage and coordinate group-based nutrition education programs for a wide variety of federal, state, or privately funded community-based services. Students also have the unique opportunity to combine their coursework in nutrition with courses from other disciplines by building a minor into their major program. Minors such as Public Health, Communication Studies, Journalism, Political Science, Psychology or Sociology allow graduates to apply their knowledge of nutrition in a tangential but specialized field such as weight loss consulting, nutrition communication, public health policy and regulations, social services, elder care health services or food retail, to name a few.
