The Master of Science in Nutrition Science equips students for professional roles in nutrition and allied disciplines by enhancing their expertise in nutritional science, cross-cultural understanding, and practical research approaches. Throughout the curriculum, learners conduct independent or applied investigations, culminating in a thesis or project presentation. Joint enrollees in both the Individualized Supervised-Practice Pathway (ISPP) and MS program may choose a practice-oriented project instead of a thesis. This alternative mandates fulfillment of ACEND's 1,200-hour supervised practice standard, execution of field research at a rotation site, and public presentation of results.

Qualification Requirements
Meet all university admissions requirements.
A minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) in the last 60 semester units of undergraduate coursework and in all post-graduate coursework.
Minimum prerequisites for the Master of Science in Nutrition Science include completion of the following college-level courses with a grade of C or better: General Chemistry series with lab (CHEM 2050 & 2050L), Organic and biochemistry series with lab (CHEM 2060 & 2060L), Nutritional Biochemistry (e.g., HSCI 4661), Anatomy & Physiology with lab (BIOL 2230 & 2240), Statistics (MATH 1201 or HSCI 3205), Fundamentals of Human Nutrition (HSCI 3601). Exposure to life cycle nutrition as part of another course or as a devoted course is highly recommended (HSCI 3602). Most students with a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition degree will meet the prerequisite requirements.
A copy of most recent resume or curriculum vitae.
Three letters of recommendations that highlight the applicant's (1) academic ability and potential to succeed in the graduate program and (2) professional experiences that make the candidate ideal for nutrition science.
A statement of purpose, double-spaced and no more than 1,000 words, detailing: (1) practical experience(s) in nutrition science and how it relates to the program (this is weighted most), (2) academic experience(s) in nutrition or related field, (3) immediate and long-term professional goals and how that relates to the program, (4) reasons for being interested in the Nutrition Science M.S. program at CSUSB, and (5) key skills the applicant can bring to the program.
Writing sample based on a nutrition topic of interest to the applicant, typed, approximately 1,000 words, double-spaced, with appropriate references (not counted in the word limit). The writing sample should highlight the applicant's basic understanding of human nutrition science and relevant concepts to solve health issues.
IELTS - 6.0, TOEFL IBT - 79, PBT - 550, PTE - 53
