Program Description

The bachelor in Food, Nutrition and Human Health (BSc) at Robert Gordon University is based on the scientific study of nutrients and food components, and how they affect our health.

Nutritionists and food scientists have a key role in maintaining the health of our population. They may develop and evaluate nutrition policies and public health campaigns; apply nutritional principles to the management of diet in athletic performance; deal with ingredients, allergens, and legislation when developing food and drink products; or study metabolic and physiological responses of the human body to food and nutrients.

A key feature of the bachelor in Food, Nutrition and Human Health (BSc) is a 12-week work-based placement providing you with valuable experience highly sought after by employers.

If you are a Scottish student, you are eligible for a lower tuition fee of £1,820 per year.
