This dual fast-track pathway combines the Honours BSc in Food Sciences with the Master of Science in Nutrition and Food Biosciences, which is taught in English. The master's develops advanced research competencies across clinical and public health nutrition, food sciences, and cellular and molecular nutrition, from food formulation to metabolism.
Faculty: Faculty of Health Sciences | Study mode: full-time | Location: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
The bachelor's years follow the Honours BSc in Food Sciences (compulsory NUT courses in food science, microbiology, analysis and safety), followed by the thesis-based MSc in Nutrition and Food Biosciences.
Graduates prepare for careers in the agri-food sector, including agri-food industries, businesses, food science research centres and government departments.
Dual fast-track pathway: admission to the dual program does not guarantee entry into the master's. Students must keep a minimum cumulative GPA of 8.5 (out of 10) for good academic standing, hold written confirmation from at least one faculty member willing to supervise the thesis, and by the end of January of the 3rd year pass an English proficiency test if they have not completed an undergraduate course in English. The bachelor's component has the Honours BSc Food Sciences prerequisites: English 4U or Français 4U; Biology 4U; Chemistry 4U (minimum 65%); one Mathematics 4U course; minimum admission average 73%.
