Good nutrition is key for everyone. It aids elite athletes, supports personal training, and community-based sport, prevents illness and promotes recovery from diseases; a balanced diet helps individuals benefit from optimal performance in sport too. This course provides the opportunity to gain scientific underpinning knowledge and skills designed to help you secure an exciting and rewarding post-university role within these areas.
