Modern nutrition is an advanced and solidly evidence-based discipline
Advances in molecular biology and food science have revolutionised nutrition, influencing health policymaking and food security. Aligned with the SDGs of the 2030 Agenda, these advances highlight the importance of healthy eating, food security and sustainable agriculture. Modern nutrition focuses on health and disease prevention, impacting on the goals of "Zero Hunger", "Health and Wellness" and "Responsible Production and Consumption". This has global socio-economic implications due to the increasing demand for food and nutritional products.
The Degree Programme in Human Nutrition and Dietetics has been designed to provide comprehensive training in all aspects related to nutrition and dietetics, both from a scientific and professional perspective, and with an approach aligned with the vision of health of the Faculty of Life and Natural Sciences, framed in the ONE HEALTH concept proposed among other agents by the World Health Organization.
