Visão geral do Mestrado/Diploma de Pós-Graduação em Ciência e Prática da Nutrição

We have developed this course to enable you to give sound, professional and evidence-based nutritional advice to your clients once you have qualified.

Our MSc/PGDip in Nutrition Science and Practice consists of 120 taught credits and 60 dissertation credits. The taught course is modular with six modules, and each module is intertwined to build your knowledge and clinical skills gradually. As this is a practitioner training, the system is designed to ensure that at the end of the two years in class and clinic, you will be a safe, confident and evidence-based nutrition practitioner. All the modules follow a personalised medicine approach - a structured and holistic approach to unravelling the multiple factors which cause chronic disease.

Established in 1988 the Northern College of Acupuncture is an independent teaching College as well as a registered educational charity. Since the early days, the College has gone from strength to strength, and we now educate acupuncturists, practitioners of Chinese herbal medicine, nutrition practitioners and complementary therapists. Our thriving and well-respected teaching clinic offers acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and nutritional advice to the local community.

We are proud to be pioneers in our industry! We were the first teaching institution of any kind in the UK to offer a University degree in acupuncture, the first to provide a University degree in Chinese herbal medicine, and the first to achieve professional accreditation for our acupuncture courses, Chinese herbal medicine and nutritional therapy courses.
