Nutrition and Dietetics, Associate in Science for Transfer (AS-T)
Overview
The Associate in Science for Transfer degree in Nutrition and Dietetics (AS-T in Nutrition and Dietetics) offers students basic knowledge in microbiology, human anatomy and physiology, chemistry and nutrition. Students learn about chemicals and nutrients in food and their effects on the human body and the world. The study of Nutrition provides a broad foundation in a practical and personally applicable exposure to a variety of scientific areas of nutrition such as chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, anatomy, physiology, and biology. Popular topics include microbial pathogens, environmental contaminants, nutrigenomics, macronutrient balance, energy metabolism, obesity, global issues, biochemistry of exercise, and micronutrient and phytochemical utilization. Students in the program learn how the scientific method and process contributes to nutritional requirements and how nutrients function from a cellular to more practical level, and then apply this knowledge to their own health. The program also helps students understand the role of nutrition in disease prevention throughout the lifecycle and as an impact on society as a whole.

Learning Outcomes
- Evaluate personal energy and nutrient requirements and food sources using current dietary and nutrition assessment tools.
- Explain the physiological processing of nutrients in relation to energy balance, metabolism and physical activity.
- Evaluate the impact of socioeconomic variables on food safety, food choices, food beliefs, and disease risk.
- Identify dietary and lifestyle modifications for improving health throughout growth, development and aging.
- Evaluate how human populations impact and are impacted by nutrition, food choices, and its relationship to disease.
Recommended Sequence
Students are advised to meet with an academic counselor to discuss the best combination of courses to take for the AS-T and to meet the requirements of the transfer institution to which they are intending to transfer.
