Nutrition V,Part A, Suhair Barbour M.Sc., The Nutrition courses prepare students for a wide choice of careers in nutrition and for the professional practice of dietetics. The programs use study materials, community service, and practice learning to develop an interdisciplinary knowledge core in nutrition as related to health, wellness and illness and their determinants. Through rich and varied experiential learning opportunities, students gain practical skills related to application and interpretation of knowledge. The purpose is to enhance the nutritional well-being and health of individuals, families, and populations through the promotion of scholarship in human nutrition and dietetics. Nutritional inquiry encompasses not only the roles of electrons, atoms, molecules, genes, cells, organs, and complex organisms in biological life processes but also the links between life science and health, behavior, education, population, culture, and economics.
