B.Voc in Nutrition & Dietetics is a 3-year undergraduate program focused on the science of food, balanced diets, and health management. This course trains students to understand how nutrition affects human health and how to create diet plans for individuals with different health conditions. The program blends theory with practical training to help students become certified professionals in the fields of dietetics, wellness, and clinical nutrition. With the rise of lifestyle-related disorders and growing awareness about health and fitness, the demand for trained dietitians and nutritionists has significantly increased in hospitals, fitness centers, wellness clinics, and the food industry.
This program is spread over 6 semesters and includes subjects such as human physiology, food science, therapeutic nutrition, community health, and dietary assessment. Students are trained in creating personalized diet plans, nutritional counseling, food safety, and health education. The course also includes exposure to kitchen planning, nutritional requirements of various age groups, and diet management for conditions like diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. Through clinical postings and internships in hospitals, health centers, or nutrition consultancies, students gain hands-on experience in patient care, menu planning, and conducting health awareness programs.
The examination system is designed to assess both theoretical knowledge and practical application. Each semester includes written exams on core subjects such as food science, diet therapy, and clinical nutrition. Practical assessments test students in areas like menu planning, cooking demonstrations, anthropometric measurements, and case study analysis. Internal assessments include attendance, assignments, viva voce, and field reports. In the final year, students are expected to submit a research-based project or community survey report. This well-rounded evaluation ensures graduates are job-ready and confident in handling real-world nutrition challenges.
The syllabus is designed to give students a solid foundation in food science, clinical nutrition, and health education. It prepares them to work as dietitians, food consultants, health educators, or wellness coaches.
