Bachelor of Food and Nutrition Science (Honours)
Course Overview
Our Bachelor of Food and Nutrition Science (Honours) prepares you to educate and innovate in food. You’ll study digestion, metabolism, gut health and chronic disease. Learn how to assess diets, analyse food products and make evidence-based decisions in the field. Investigate how food is made, tested and regulated. Explore different approaches to food packaging and marketing. You’ll also analyse the social and cultural sides of nutrition – understanding why people eat the way they do, and how to communicate health advice that makes sense. Along the way, you’ll develop your research, communication and critical thinking skills. You’ll learn how to use data, work in food science facilities and conduct experiments. In your Honours year, you’ll deepen your knowledge with a major research project. This will show future employees you can work independently and apply scientific methods to real problems.
