Course Summary

This full-time MSc Clinical and Public Health Nutrition focuses on the problems of over- and under-nutrition, which apply to most developed nations as well as those undergoing rapid transformation. We offer specialised training in the clinical and scientific basis of malnutrition and obesity and therapeutic approaches to correcting this in hospital, community, and educational settings. This MSc is ideal for anyone wishing to pursue a career in cutting-edge research, the practice of nutrition therapy, or in clinical and/or nutrition industries. We focus on periods of the lifecycle when nutrition is particularly important, such as acute illness, trauma, surgery or malignancy, and chronic conditions in which disease, nutrition and treatment interact. We explore the aetiology, pathophysiology, and epidemiology of obesity alongside the approaches currently used in its treatment.
