About
We train our students in the current issues in human nutrition and health, food security and sustainability, food safety and quality and food analysis in order to ensure our students acquire the necessary professional abilities in their competent nutrition career pathway. In addition to the core nutrition components, we introduce "Nutrition Entrepreneurship" in our programme with an aim to produce nutrition entrepreneurs equipped with current nutrition knowledge and relevant practical nutrition skills. On top of that, our students will be exposed to practical aspects of business planning as well as legal aspects of business ownership, international business, human resource management, information technology and "online business" perspectives in order to produce a rounded entrepreneurial nutrition profession. This programme is also suitable for those nutritionists in the retail and business sectors who wish to pursue their postgraduate studies in order to enhance their current nutrition and entrepreneurial competencies as part of their career advancement pathways. With such a wide spectrum of exposure in our programme, we will be able to produce competent and high- performing graduates who can flexibly venture into different career paths as nutrition entrepreneurs, consultants or upper management executives.
