Nutrition, Fitness, and Health, BS
Traditionally, professionals have been trained in only one discipline, but key components of fitness are both physical activity and nutrition. The nutrition, fitness, and health major provides an in-depth study into the combined areas of physical fitness and nutrition. Students develop critical thinking ability; a broad perspective in nutrition, food chemistry, metabolism, and public health nutrition; and good communication skills. Students have the opportunity to complete clinical experiences in a variety of settings including the Cordova Recreational Sports Center, A.H. Ismail Center and with our varsity athletes.
By adding 8-16 credits to the plan of study, students also can meet the academic requirements of the Nutrition and Dietetics major as set by the American Dietetic Association to become a Registered Dietitian (RD) or Registered Dietary Nutritionist (RDN). Many students opt to complete this double major.
