Food and Nutrition

The Food and Nutrition Graduate Certificate (FNGC) curriculum includes studies in nutrient metabolism, food science and nutritional principles related to health and disease. The FNGC program provides knowledge of food and nutrition that is applicable to many health care, business, professional and personal situations involving nutrition. The FNGC may be desired by students currently pursuing other graduate degree programs (e.g. public health; human movement sport, and leisure studies; biological sciences), allied health professions, or the dietetic internship who have an interest in advanced study of food and nutrition but do not wish to complete a graduate degree.
