NUTR 310 - Community Nutrition

4.00 credit hours
The role of the nutrition professional in community settings is explored with a focus on needs assessment, intervention, development and evaluation of nutrition programs. Nutrition problems in contemporary American communities, as well as developing nations, are examined with a focus on vulnerable populations and the role nutrition policy plays on the local, state and national level. Programs and strategies to meet nutrition needs outside acute care settings, such as nutrition education and food assistance are explored. Experiential learning opportunities through health initiatives on campus or in the community provide students an avenue to apply assessment and intervention techniques.

Prerequisite(s): NUTR 101 .
