Course summary

On this integrated masters degree, you'll apply your scientific knowledge to diet, nutrition and health. Accredited by the British Dietetic Association, you'll gain all the professional skills to succeed as a registered dietitian. You'll be taught by experienced registered dietitians, and have regular contact with specialist practising dietitians. This ensures that your training is current, and gives you a vital insight into your future career. Three practice placements give you first-hand clinical experience. Teaching is based on Sutton Bonington Campus and you'll use our specialist facilities to build your scientific and communication skills:

  • Clinical Skills Suite - includes a diet laboratory and the latest anthropometric measuring tools
  • Super Lab - a new technology enhanced teaching laboratory

Modules

In the first year, you'll study nutrition and biochemistry. You'll learn about the role of a registered dietitian and the skills required. There is a short practice placement during the spring semester. In the second year, you’ll build upon your skills in dietetics and communication. Applied science topics include metabolism, nutrition and physiology and medicine. In the third year, you will apply your knowledge to a range of conditions and age groups. You’ll study clinical pharmacology, public health and behavioural management. You will develop core clinical skills on your 12-week full-time placement over the summer.
