Nutritional Sciences

About

Overview With increasing recognition of the association between diet and disease and the importance of diet in health promotion, nutritionists and dietitians are needed to participate in research, to educate the public on ways to promote health through diet and to educate individuals suffering from chronic diseases on ways to incorporate dietary modifications into their lifestyles. Additionally, a degree in nutrition or dietetics can be used as a foundation to prepare for graduate school as well as entry into professional schools such as medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, or other advanced degrees in business and education.The Nutritional Sciences program curriculum at Howard University allows students to complete the general education and basic science courses in the first two years. During the last two years, students, along with their advisers, select courses, which prepare them to become dietitians or nutritionist.CareersGraduates work as college and university faculty, federal, state, local nutritionists/dietitians/researchers, media professionals, and with private corporations, or private consultants.
