Nutrition (including a Foundation Year) - BSc (Hons)

Foundation Year courses have been designed for students who do not have the necessary academic qualifications needed to enter directly into the first year of a degree but who have the ability and commitment to do so. Once the Foundation Year has been completed successfully, you can then go on to complete your degree. Our BSc in Nutrition (including a Foundation Year) provides you with an opportunity to study a multidisciplinary subject where social and biological sciences influence health. Our accredited undergraduate Nutrition degree is designed to meet the Association for Nutrition (AfN) competencies required of a professional nutritionist.
