Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Foods (Co-op)

The Drexel Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Foods program prepares students to pursue career opportunities in nutrition and dietetics. Graduates of this program can apply the principles of nutrition and food science to the nutritional care of individuals and groups - such as in hospitals, school food service or community nutrition - or to excel in careers in the wellness, food or pharmaceutical industries.Although the degree does not by itself prepare you to become a dietitian, many of our students go on to become Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs). Dietetics is the practical application of nutrition in the prevention and treatment of disease. Dietetics is an exciting and challenging profession because there are many diseases that are related to nutrition, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, cancer, diabetes and obesity.
