Master of Science (Dietetics)
Before official application, students should submit their marks for the undergraduate programme that they followed and a two-page proposal about their intended topic for the study that includes a title, brief literature study, methods that they plan to follow, reasons for the study and what they expect the outcome will be. Students who do not yet have a topic, can consult the staff of the Department of Dietetics for assistance.
After initial screening of these submissions, students who are successful will be interviewed by telephone or in person, and should they be conditionally selected, can apply via the normal application procedure for M students.
