Western University - Brescia University College
The Master's degree in Foods and Nutrition at Western University offers two curriculum options in the MScFN program: a project-based (practicum) curriculum option and a thesis-based curriculum option. Both groups will participate in graduate-level university courses and enhance their leadership skills. Students will also expand their research competence through completing either a major research project (project-based students) or a thesis (thesis-based students).
Project-based (Practicum) - Students will complete a full-time, year-long, PDEP accredited dietetic practicum which qualifies graduates to write the Canadian Dietetic Registration Examination to work as Registered Dietitians (RDs) in Canada. Students participate in advanced coursework, and work with a Faculty Supervisor to complete a major research project.
Thesis-based – Provides graduates with a Master of Science degree and the opportunity to strengthen research skills through advanced course work and Thesis development. Research will progress under the guidance of a Faculty Research Supervisor, who will support the student in their learning. The MScFN thesis-based curriculum option does not train students to become Registered Dietitians in Canada.
- 5 Terms (Project-based) - Full-time or part-time study (thesis-based only).
- 6 Terms (Thesis-based) - Project-based or Thesis-based.
