Ulster University - Coleraine
Food & Nutrition - Online
The food and drink industry is a global business that is thriving; the food industry in the UK alone contributes almost £90 billion to the economy. While career opportunities within food and nutrition continue to expand, there is still a worldwide shortage of qualified graduates with food and nutrition knowledge and skills. You will gain an understanding in the key aspects of the science of food and nutrition in the context of regulatory affairs policy and legislation, including aspects of food toxicology, policy, and food legislation from an EU perspective.
This is an academically challenging and professionally relevant programme which will enable you to pursue a career in the area of food and nutrition. The course is aimed especially at those interested in the relationships between food, nutrition, and health, who wish to pursue a career within this challenging and rewarding environment.
