Course outline

The Bachelor of Nutrition and Bachelor of Science (Psychology) course provides a broad and coherent theoretical and technical knowledge of both nutrition and psychology. The course considers the complex interplay between psychology and nutrition and its application in real-world contexts. Students will learn how to conduct research in the nutrition and psychological sciences and learn how to communicate professionally. This course prepares you for a career in nutrition and the psychological sciences. The psychology aspects of the degree are useful for careers which require a sound understanding of human behaviour such as eating disorders and other food-related health conditions. The psychology units will give students a comprehensive overview of the scientific discipline of psychology and its applications. The course is delivered in accordance with the foundational (level one) competencies for three-year undergraduate psychology programs as specified by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC).
