For students attending the Master's Programme in Nutrition Science (120 credits) Degree Project in nutrition science
The degree project gives you the opportunity to carry out an independent research project within an area of nutrition science that interests you. You can choose a degree project of 30, 45 or 60 credits.
The degree project allows you to deepen your knowledge and experience of scientific work in nutrition science. Under supervision, you will plan and carry out a research project and present your results in a written report. It could also be a step towards further studies at the doctoral level in nutrition related areas.
Depending on your interests and previous background, you can work within different areas of nutrition research, such as molecular nutrition, physiology, clinical nutrition, epidemiology or public health. You will also present your degree project orally and discuss and provide feedback on another student’s work.
