This programme has been designed to align with the Association for Nutrition (AfN) competencies.

Our MSc Applied Nutrition program addresses a rising demand for well-trained nutritional professionals in health education, nutrition and community health work.

As high nutrition-related diseases such as cardiovascular issues, type-2 diabetes and certain cancers persist, the importance of combating these, while enhancing immune function, cognitive well-being and mental health is paramount.

This is an interdisciplinary programme consisting of elements of medical sciences, nutritional sciences, social and psychological sciences, exercise and nutrition and food policy. It aims to enable you to acquire knowledge, as well as skills to apply that knowledge to practice in a variety of settings.

This programme will also provide you with many transferable skills to prepare you for a career after graduation.

Career

You'll develop practical, research, academic, professional and transferable skills, equipping you for a range of nutrition-related roles and wider career paths after you complete the course.

These include positions such as nutritionist, nutrition counsellor, wellness coach, health educator, health advocate, and nutrition researcher.

Moreover, your skill set extends to roles in academic institutions and adaptable positions in both the public and private sectors, such as major food companies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), charities, and various levels of governmental organisations, both locally and internationally.
