The MSc in Dietetics and Nutrition is a rigorous program designed for science graduates aiming to become professional dietitians.

Our nutrition and food science programs hold an outstanding position, ranked third in the UK by the Guardian University Guide. They also rank third for teaching excellence and seventh for student satisfaction.

Dietitians stand as the sole accredited health experts who evaluate, diagnose, and address dietary and nutritional issues for individuals and broader public health concerns. They apply cutting-edge scientific research on nutrition, health, and disease to offer practical advice, helping people make informed dietary and lifestyle decisions. (Ref: Role of Dietitians)

This program covers comprehensive instruction in food science, nutrition, dietetics, and related disease causes, progression, and treatment. It also integrates clinical training, research methodologies, and public health principles.

London Met boasts advanced facilities, featuring simulated hospital wards and outpatient clinics to enhance clinical skill development. Industry specialists in health, nutrition, and dietetics contribute as guest lecturers for specialized course components.

By completing the program, including three mandatory practical placements, graduates gain the expertise required to qualify for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), meeting their rigorous standards for professional competence and conduct.
