Experts on nutrition and the food industry

Nutrition and home economics combine different scientific disciplines (subject areas) on the broad subject of nutrition and food. At our university, you can take a broad bachelor's degree (nutritional science) and a specialized master's degree (food science).

While you acquire extensive competencies in relation to nutrition, supply, and food production in the Bachelor's degree in Nutritional Science, you can specialize in the development, production, and marketing of products in the food sector in the Master's Food Science. While natural, social, and economic science subjects are almost equally combined in the bachelor’s degree, the natural science components predominate in the master’s program. Both courses lead to a scientific degree (Bachelor of Science, Master of Science).
