About the program
The 24 course work hours may include no more than 9 hours of NFS 7030 (Advanced Food and Nutrition Research). The 9 hours of NFS 7030 is the total a student can take while a graduate student in the School of Nutrition and Food Sciences; thus, if a student takes 9 hours at the M.S. level, they may not take this course at the doctoral level.
Students without nutrition courses as an undergraduate student may be required to complete selected undergraduate courses which are a prerequisite for graduate study in nutrition. More than 30 hours may be needed to ensure a thorough understanding of the field and this determination is made by the Major Professor and/or the Graduate Advisory Committee.
