Our Nutrition Minor is designed for students who desire a more in-depth study of nutrition. We provide you with foundational knowledge in nutritional sciences through hands-on experience. With a multidisciplinary perspective, students examine the interplay of food and nutrition on human behavior, business, culture, and the environment.
A minor in nutrition will benefit you in academics and possible careers, but also personally. Our program can improve your personal nutrition, health, and lifestyle through the skills you’ll learn. You’ll be able to apply those skills to your main area of study and become an informed consumer all in one minor. Many majors pair well with this minor including:
