Mestrado em Ciências em Alimentos e Nutrição com ênfase em Tese

The Master of Science in Foods and Nutrition Thesis Stream program offers students the opportunity to strengthen their research skills through advanced course work and Thesis development under a Faculty Supervisor's guidance.

Faculty and staff within the School of Food and Nutritional Sciences are passionate about providing a stimulating learning environment. Students become empowered to pursue leadership and research opportunities in their future careers.

This program prepares graduates for fulfilling careers in research with private corporations, government agencies, health charities, research management agencies, medical institutions, and academia. Graduates may also continue in education by enrolling in PhD programs. The MScFN Thesis stream complements those already working in dietetic practice and wants to advance their research skills and capacity for leadership roles.

Although housed at a women's university, both MScFN program streams value diversity and welcome all genders to apply.

Students must take one mandatory and one optional course in both the first term (Fall) and the second term (Winter) of the program. It is expected that on weekdays when classes are not scheduled that students will be available for dedicated research and group course work.
