It is concerned with the science and art of providing medical nutrition therapy and public health nutrition programs for individuals and groups differing widely in economic, social, psychological and physiological conditions.

In this course, you will study a range of specialized topics in medical nutrition therapy, counseling, and food service, and undertake placement units in a range of settings such as hospital, community, aged care, and food service.

Essential course prerequisites

Entry is competitive and a high course weighted average (CWA) is required (65% or more).

An equivalent undergraduate degree needs to meet the Dietitians Association of Australia (DAA) requirements for entry to a graduate-entry master. These specify that 50% of each of the first and second years of undergraduate study must be composed of bioscience, chemistry, physiology, and biochemistry, as outlined in the Manual for Accreditation of Dietetic Education Programs.

You also need to have completed the equivalent of 100 credit points of undergraduate nutrition at second- and third-year level. You are not eligible to enter this program if you have a dietetic qualification that can be considered by the DAA for recognition of overseas skills. Your application will be reviewed by a selection panel.
