About Dietetics Bsc (hons) in Ulster University

As well as providing impartial advice about nutrition and health, dietitians are also involved in the prevention and treatment of nutrition-related problems and in the dietary treatment of disease. The programme provides a sound background in nutrition, the scientific study of the foods we eat, the nutrients contained in foods, the fate of the nutrients when they are eaten and the effect of diet on health and well-being.

The programme therefore includes the study of the science of nutrition and dietetics, the supportive sciences of chemistry, biochemistry, physiology, anatomy, biology, immunology, genetics, pharmacology, pathology, food science, epidemiology and statistics, as well as inputs from the social sciences, such as sociology, psychology, communication and management.

The number of places available on the dietetics course is limited by the availability of dietetics clinical placements.
