Overview

The study of nutrition and food provides a solid academic education and practical training for a variety of career opportunities. These fields also encompass some of the most critically important—and hotly debated—issues affecting modern society, among them world hunger and problems related to safety, bioengineering, and the globalization of food.

Through positions in health care, business, government service, private practice, the food and food service industries, and educational and community programs, nutrition and food professionals help individuals and the public make better-informed choices about food and nutritional health.
