„I particularly appreciate the practical units in the learning workshop and the close supervision by the lecturers. The interdisciplinary approach and applied topics such as nutritional sciences and food culture make the program especially varied.”

Laura Wöhler,
Studentin

„For me, nutritional education is the ideal mix of familiar and new, exciting disciplines such as health and sports sciences. Binding goal agreements, combined with an almost family-like atmosphere, create an environment in which a sense of community quickly develops”

Lilli-Mari Held,
Studentin

„Nutritional science is a versatile and practical natural science. What I particularly like about the program is that it includes practical units, such as in the lab or in the learning workshop (kitchen). The close supervision by the Public Health Nutrition working group is also commendable”
