Overview:

The BSc (Hons) Human Nutrition course introduces the scientific principles behind food, nutrients, health, and human wellbeing. It provides a foundation for understanding how nutrition relates to the body and supports further study in nutrition and related scientific fields at the University of Greenwich.

What You'll Learn:

• Core principles of human nutrition and the role of nutrients in the body

• Fundamental concepts in biological and health sciences

• The relationship between diet, nutrition, and human health

• Scientific approaches used to explore nutrition-related questions

• Key concepts that support progression into higher-level study of nutrition and related subjects

• Academic and scientific skills relevant to studying nutrition at university level

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the course, students will have developed a sound introductory understanding of human nutrition and its scientific basis. They will be able to explain the importance of nutrients within the context of human health and recognise how dietary factors relate to wellbeing. Students will also be able to apply foundational scientific concepts to nutrition-related topics, interpret basic information within a scientific context, and demonstrate the academic skills needed for further study. The course is designed to establish the knowledge and confidence required to progress from foundation-level study toward more advanced learning in human nutrition and associated scientific disciplines.
