They work in a wide range of settings with a variety of people from different backgrounds, age groups and ethnicities, and our graduates go on to work in the NHS, public health, the food and drink industry, medical nutrition, sports nutrition, the media, or progress into further study, academia or research.<br/><br/>Our Nutrition and Dietetics degree combines research-led, evidence-based teaching with simulation, service user participation and clinical placements to equip you with the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes to become autonomous, competent and compassionate dietitians.

We also work closely with local NHS healthcare providers to ensure that what you learn is up to date, with practical knowledge being regularly shared by highly specialist dietitians who are actively working in clinical practise.<br/><br/>We highly recommend that all students interested in applying for this course attend a Dietetics Awareness Event.
