Good nutrition is the basis of health and the avoidance of illness. Study our Nutrition and Medical Sciences BSc to learn how nutrition relates to all stages of life and modern patterns of disease.
You’ll explore the foundations of human biology and medicine, including the major body systems in health and disease, while also delving in depth into the themes of human growth and development.
The course covers therapeutic approaches to obesity, other disease conditions and topics such as frailty and ageing, and nutrition for athletes. You will consider public health nutrition in settings of developing and developed countries as well, looking at both socio-cultural and behavioural aspects.
The flexible format means you tailor-make a programme that suits your needs and future career goals. We offer a variety of options to broaden your knowledge, covering genetics, cancer biology, nutrition and cancer risk, the human microbiome, nutrition and culture, and much more. The final-year research project helps you develop core skills and new techniques to set you up confidently for pursuing a rewarding and enjoyable career as a nutritionist.
In Year 1, the primary location is UCL’s teaching hub in the Royal Free Hospital, Hampstead with some teaching taking place at UCL’s main campus in Bloomsbury. In subsequent years, the course is based primarily at UCL’s Bloomsbury campus, with some teaching sessions held at the Royal Free teaching hub.
This degree offers extensive hands-on learning through hospital visits, laboratory practicals, varied learning methods and exciting extra-curricular activities. You’ll also have UCL’s established nutrition study community and our world-leading biomedical research facilities at your fingertips.
