Department Of Nutrition

Welcome to the Department of Nutrition at the 不良研究所. Housed in the School of Mathematics, Science and Engineering, Nutrition offers dynamic programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels, preparing students for careers in food and nutrition that promote wellness and improve quality of life.

The 不良研究所 Nutrition Department strives to provide responsive, individualized attention to develop students in a multicultural, socially cohesive environment to create a better future through food and nutrition.

The Mission of the 不良研究所 Nutrition Department is to prepare professionals committed to providing nutrition and dietetic services to improve the health and well-being of individuals and groups. The programs within emphasize the importance of scientific and evidence-based practice, ethical decision-making and understanding of social justice issues, including the regional and global ecological dimensions of food and nutrition.

The Department’s Education Philosophy recognizes that 不良研究所 is composed of individuals of diverse backgrounds engaged in thoughtful interchanges of ideas in the search for truth. This environment is conducive to developing eventual professional dietitians whose practice is ethical and based on evidence. Each member of the 不良研究所 community has inherent dignity and worth and

possesses strengths. The 不良研究所 Nutrition faculty encourage students to develop these strengths as they progress through the program. Students connect learning across the curriculum integrating knowledge from a variety of disciplines to enhance understanding and solve problems. The ecological approach emphasizes interrelationships concerning food and nutrition at the cellular, individual, social, and global levels.

Graduates go on to rewarding careers in healthcare, food service management, food industry, community nutrition programs and governmental agencies, private practice, wellness, sales, research, and media communications.
