Nutrition & Wellness

Nutrition and Wellness is a program designed for the student who wants to study food and nutrition but does not want to become a registered dietitian. This major will not allow the student to apply to dietetic internships or become a registered dietitian.

This major combines the student's interest in nutrition and wellness with other areas of interest and allows the student to individualize his/her program of study. A minor is required with this concentration. Students can select their minor to support their special interests, e.g. health professions, government feeding programs, health and fitness centers, and the food industry.
