Prepare to embed nutrition into various career paths, from medicine to public health to dentistry and more during Columbia’s one-year master’s degree program. The curriculum includes required courses such as Introduction to Epidemiology for Nutritionists and electives such as Obesity: Etiology, Prevention, and Treatment. The program culminates in thesis research.

The Masters in Human Nutrition prepares students for careers in healthcare, academia, and industry, in the United States and abroad. In addition to acquiring broad and deep training in nutrition science, students end the year as stronger critical thinkers, better writers, and more confident public speakers. Our courses are designed to enhance nutrition knowledge and skills and are applicable to academic, research, and clinical settings. Besides core courses, students may choose to focus on one of three tracks: basic nutrition science, clinical nutrition, or public health nutrition.

Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons (VP&S) is guided by the principle that medical education is university education. The acquisition of knowledge and skills is important in professional education, but far more vital is a profound understanding of the science, the art, and the ethic within which both knowledge and skill are applied. As a part of Columbia University, the College builds its curriculum, selects its officers of instruction, and marshals its enormous resources of equipment and clinical experience to develop in the student this understanding of medicine.

VP&S is part of a unique collection of health sciences schools that make up the Columbia University Irving Medical Center, an integral part of the Washington Heights community in upper Manhattan—one of New York City's most diverse neighborhoods. Every day VP&S faculty, staff, and students work towards our mission—to care, to discover, to educate, and to make life better for people in need.
