Food Science and Nutrition Alumni Chapter

Welcome to the Food Science and Nutrition Alumni website - membership of the Food Science and Nutrition Alumni Chapter is open to all food science and nutrition, human nutrition and public health nutrition graduates.

You can see that we have arranged to have two separate Chapters, one for food and nutrition graduates, the other for dietetics graduates. This is to allow for the special interests and network of these two distinct groups.

The School is strongly committed to food and nutrition and dietetics and to the roles these domains of learning can play in the community and in graduates professional lives. Our graduates are playing key roles in new developments in the food and health sectors and the School is keen to stay in touch. We hope that as the Alumni develops there will be strong interaction between the School, its current students and its graduates. Already, Alumni members have been very active in helping our current students enter professional networks. We are very grateful for this generosity as it is often difficult for new graduates to commence their careers.

I strongly encourage you to make use of the Alumni facilities, particularly this website. Please feel free to share your experiences and opinions with us.

Where are you NOW?
