Entry requirements
Successful completion of an Honours Degree (2:2 level and above) in a related science subject. This should include knowledge of fundamental human anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry. Typically, human nutrition, a related bioscience course such as health science or sport and exercise science.
If you have an NTEC accredited Diploma you may be eligible for direct entry - please contact the Admissions Tutor to discuss.
If you have a HE qualification (equivalent to an honours degree with a 2:2) that does not meet our requirements, then on application, we have a ‘bridging’ access assessment based on resources from “Access to Nutrition and Lifestyle Practice” that we will provide; this is equivalent to 30 hours study and must be passed.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
Applications for recognition of prior learning, or prior experiential learning, will be considered and will be assessed using the University of Worcester RPL guidance for postgraduate courses. Normally this would only apply to NUTH4031 Studying Nutrition.
Applicants whose first language is not English are required to provide a language test certificate as evidence of their proficiency, which must be comparable to IELTS of 7.0 or above, with no component below 6.5.
