Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Food Science, Nutrition and Wellbeing

Program Overview

Why study Food Science, Nutrition and Wellbeing?

Embark on a fascinating journey to learn how food, nutrition and exercise impact our wellbeing and health. Explore the role of fitness and nutrition in promoting public health, and consider food and consumer choices from a safety, quality, and nutritional perspective.

Working in our state-of-the art labs, you’ll learn how to handle and test food professionally, and master analytical techniques. You’ll enhance your CV with a work placement, usually in schools, the National Health Service or community-based roles/projects.

We teach you the fundamentals of food, nutrition and exercise, including:

Food handling skills
The functionality of raw and cooked food ingredients
The key social issues in nutrition, sport and exercise
How nutrition, metabolism and digestion relate to diet and health
How to analyse food and drink using a range of scientific techniques
The nutritional needs throughout an individual’s lifespan

For the first two years, everyone takes Food Science, Nutrition and Wellbeing as a foundation. After that, you can specialise in other areas if you want to or carry on studying this pathway. See more in the 'How the Course Works' section below.

If you want to study a wide-ranging and flexible degree, then Abertay is for you. This is ideal for secondary school leavers, entrants from further education colleges, and mature students. This course is aligned with the General Teaching Council (GTC) requirements for the PG Diploma in Home Economics teaching if that’s your graduation plan.
