The Interdepartmental Nutrition Program brings together faculty from various departments such as Animal Science, Agricultural and Human Sciences, Food, Bioprocessing, and Nutrition Sciences, Horticultural Science, Molecular and Structural Biochemistry, and the Prestage Department of Poultry Science. Students are based in one of these departments, working under a faculty advisor's guidance. Nutrition research spans diverse species and scales, from molecular and cellular studies to whole animal and human population investigations. Focus areas include nutritional biochemistry, experimental animal nutrition (covering horses, ruminants, swine, poultry, rodents, and other species), as well as community nutrition and public health. Program graduates pursue careers in academia, government agencies, industry, non-profits, or advance to medical and health-related professional programs.

This track is designed for students aiming to gain nutrition research expertise for technical positions or doctoral studies. Research opportunities encompass a broad spectrum, from molecular investigations to comprehensive animal studies.
