Within the buzzing nutritional industry, we wanted to arm you with skills that could help you create a career path of your choosing. Kelsey Hutton, one of the faces behind the Bachelor of Food and Nutrition, explains the importance of having an industry-proof skill set.
‘I myself am a business owner in the nutrition space and understand the diverse skills we need in our toolbox to be successful in our careers. At Federation Online, the Food and Nutrition Sciences degree doesn’t just teach the foundations of nutrition, but also teaches business experience (such as statistics, management and marketing), psychology skills (such as understanding the psychological drivers of food choices) and there are units students can take that will help them to find their niche and carve their own career path in the nutrition world.’
By learning a range of practical business units, you’ll have the confidence and career-readiness to enter the professional world as soon as you graduate. We want to help you dream big, whether that’s working in a health setting or starting your own business.
