Description:

Our world-class faculty at the Mount are committed to the pursuit of knowledge, understanding and responsibility for food, nutrition, and health issues in social, political, cultural, ecological and economic contexts. Whether you plan to become a dietitian or nutritionist, to work in health care, food product development, community nutrition or food service, or to build your career in Canada or abroad, our programs will give you the knowledge and skills that you need to meet your goals.

BScAHN Nutrition: This program is best suited to those who are not interested in becoming a dietitian and want freedom to choose more electives. Nutrition is the study of the relationships among food, its nutrients, the environment, and health. Careful choice of electives prepares graduates to seek work in a variety of fields including commodity marketing boards, food retailing, government, social services, homemaking services, and the agri-food sector. Graduates may also choose to pursue additional studies for careers in school or community teaching, research, or business or to pursue graduate studies (e.g. nutritional sciences, food studies).
