Make a Healthy Lifestyle Your Career
The Department of Foods and Nutrition offers a solid foundation in science and the liberal arts and approaches the food and nutritional needs of individuals holistically. Our courses of study emphasize evidence-based practices, ethical leadership, social responsibility, service to the community, and lifelong learning.
The undergraduate program in foods and nutrition is undergoing revisions. We hope to announce a new program in the near future. We are also launching the Graduate Program in Entrepreneurial Nutrition Practice, enrolling graduate students for Fall 2025.
