This advanced program provides comprehensive insights into cutting-edge developments in human nutrition while honing your research capabilities.

Designed for flexibility, the program accommodates busy schedules through intensive block teaching formats, allowing full-time or part-time study alongside other responsibilities. The learning approach blends independent study (supported by our Stream digital platform) with concentrated sessions (typically two full-day blocks for core subjects and two half-day sessions for electives). These intensive courses feature video-conferencing, enabling participation from either Palmerston North or Auckland campuses regardless of course location.
