Public Health Nutrition (UC Berkeley)

Students in the Public Health Nutrition concentration at the UC Berkeley School of Public Health will gain perspective on the following essential questions:

What are the most critical social, behavioral, and food- and nutrition-related factors that affect health?

What are ways that the design, implementation, and evaluation of programs can improve the nutritional status of the population or subgroups in the population?

How can nutrition- and food-related public policies affect health, especially in vulnerable populations?

How can global, national, state, and local community programs be designed to improve the nutritional status of the population as a whole and those at particular risk?
