What You Will Learn?
The curriculum combines rigorous academic coursework in nutrition, biochemistry, physiology, statistics and molecular biology, with practical training in specific areas of interest. Students thereby acquire in-depth knowledge as well as an understanding of how to design, conduct, and report peer-reviewed research. Students take academic courses at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy and at the Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences. However, students have the opportunity to take courses in the School of Medicine and School of Arts and Sciences of Tufts University and at other schools within the Boston area via consortium arrangements.
