Nutritional Sciences, BS (Department of Kinesiology)

It may seem rather simplistic at first glance - eat a little more of this, a little less of that - but the field nutrition and dietetics is far more complex and multifaceted than first meets the eye (& stomach!). Nutrition is a science that investigates the body’s metabolic and physiological responses to food and explores the role of food and nutrients in the development, treatment, and prevention of disease. It also grapples with understanding and leveraging the web of factors that shape how, when, and what we eat.

The B.S. Nutritional Sciences degree at UWM is designed to provide all students with a strong foundation in the biological and social sciences in order to understand and communicate the relationships between food, nutrients, eating behavior, and human health. The Nutritional Sciences degree is designed to be highly customizable so that you can pursue a program of study that best aligns with your interests and future career goals.

The professional titles/credentials in the field of nutrition and dietetics include RD/RDN (Registered Dietitian or Registered Dietitian Nutritionist) - which requires at least a bachelor’s degree (a master's degree will be required in 2024) - and NDTR (Nutrition & Dietetic Technician, Registered) which requires an associate degree or higher. You can earn these credentials by successfully completing an ACEND-accredited program(s) which includes coursework and supervised practice and then passing a national credentialing exam.

Although the B.S. Nutritional Sciences degree is not an ACEND-accredited program, it can be customized to prepare you to apply to ACEND-accredited graduate-level dietetics programs. Most of the prerequisite courses required for admission to such programs are built directly into the degree. If you are interested in pursuing adding the pre-dietetics option to your program of study, contact your advisor for further guidance. More information can be found in the pre-dietetics section of the UWM Catalog.
