Nutritional guidance is required for the elderly and people in need of nursing care, and dietary education is required for children from infancy to school age. Also, since the prevalence of lifestyle diseases is deeply associated with nutrition, diet, and lack of exercise, nutritional guidance is increasingly important in the prevention and treatment of diseases. Our society needs managerial dieticians who have acquired advanced expertise and techniques in nutrition and diet to manage people’s health based on food and nutrition.

Our graduate program was established to meet the social need for diversified health management in 2006. It consists of nutritional science in which the postgraduates study nutrition of food and health science in which nutrition is applied to medical care and healthcare. In both programs, we aim to train highly specialized and skilled professions who can contribute to the medical and health fields in the community, such as health improvement and prevention and treatment of diseases, from the perspective of nutritional science. If you want to be a highly specialized and skilled professional in health management based on food and nutrition, you are strongly expected to enroll in our program to fulfill your purpose.
