Beschreibung des Programms

This integrated master's dietetics degree will equip you with the specialist knowledge and skills needed to become a competent and effective dietitian. This degree focuses on the effect of nutrition on the functioning of the human body in health and disease. It equips you with specialist knowledge and skills in preventing, treating and managing ill health with food, nutrients and dietary change.

This is the first undergraduate Dietetics programme in the North East of England. You'll benefit from newly built, state-of-the-art facilities and our world-class research. Innovative and exciting teaching practices, including the use of case-based teaching, simulated learning opportunities, and integrated practice placements ensure you're well-prepared for your future career.

Dietetics is a broad-based subject and you'll study topics ranging from the natural and clinical sciences to the social sciences. This degree includes a year of study at the master’s level to enhance your leadership skills and ability to influence future dietetic practice, as well as offering significant research experience.

Professional accreditation and recognition

Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the British Dietetic Association (BDA)

Our integrated master's course in Dietetics is approved by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and is also accredited by the British Dietetic Association (BDA).

This means that graduates are eligible to apply to register with the HCPC and work as a dietitian.

Work placements (practice placements)

A key component of the course, and preparation for employment as a dietitian, is practice placements. These are integrated throughout all years of the programme.

In Stages 1 and 2, the placements will include observational and experiential visits to:

  • catering and food-related settings
  • care settings
  • group/population/patient-related activities

These experiences will be within the North East region and provided by NHS trusts, industry and charities. Some of our practice-learning partners for these experiences include:

  • Newcastle West End Foodbank
  • Simply Food Solutions
  • St Anthony’s Community Association
  • The People’s Kitchen

In other placements, you'll be given the opportunity to apply theories you've acquired during the academic study to the practical work completed by dietitians throughout diverse areas of the health service on a daily basis. Your placements will be based with NHS Trusts in the North East of England, and will be undertaken as follows:

  • a one-week placement in a dietetic department during Stage 2
  • a 12-week placement in a dietetic department at the end of Stage 3
  • a 12-week placement in a dietetic department during Stage 4

These placements fulfil the 1,000 hours of practice-based learning requirements of the British Dietetic Association (BDA) curriculum framework and will take place in quality-assured practice settings.
