Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics

The Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics at Monash University is a vocationally oriented course. Utilising the strengths of the biomedical and medical departments within the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, the course aims to produce graduates who are recognised for their clinical, public health and management skills.  Graduates will be qualified to work as dietitians in the hospital setting and other specialised areas such as community and public health, and the food industry sector.

The course is offered as a four-year full-time degree. It integrates academic teaching and learning with clinical, population health and management experience, and is undertaken in partnership with dietitians in professional practice.

The course has been accredited by the Dietitians Association of Australia (DAA) and graduates are eligible to become Accredited Practicing Dietitians (APDs).
