Bachelors of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences / Arts

Blend your interests in health, sport and nutrition with the creativity and critical thinking of the arts, preparing you for a diverse career improving health outcomes for individuals and communities.

Through this dual program, you’ll gain innovative and analytical thinking skills, backed by an in-depth knowledge of human movement and nutrition sciences. You'll build a portfolio of skills and capabilities that can be transferred across industries such as health care, government, education, business and finance, and higher education.

While studying the Bachelor of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, you’ll explore human movement and nutrition across the lifespan. You'll discover the roles that food, physical activity, exercise and sleep play in our health, the prevention of chronic disease and sporting performance.

You’ll also develop the knowledge and skills to address 2 of the most important modifiable risk factors for chronic disease – physical activity and nutrition.

Through UQ’s Bachelor of Arts program – one of the largest and most comprehensive in Australia – you’ll have the opportunity to broaden your skill set by choosing from more than 45 study areas across the humanities, social sciences and languages.

Selecting a major or extended major can lead to rewarding careers in health. For instance, an extended major in psychology not only qualifies you for further study with an honours year in psychology, but also provides the essential knowledge to support others in making positive health behaviour changes.

The dual program provides multiple employment pathways, including working in diverse communities, government organisations and consultancy.
