  • Health promotion

You can also train as a public health nutritionist through further study and/or applied practice. Food and health have been identified as strategically significant in UCD. As such, the development of internationally recognized research groups in food and health at UCD has resulted in a substantial increase in the recruitment of Ph.D. and MSc (Research) posts.

A 10-month PWE program allows you to graduate with the skills necessary to enter the working world.

Opportunities for international study exist through the PWE component and, upon graduation, through world-class research groups in international universities.
