Best Colleges for Nutrition

With a growing emphasis in the healthcare field on preventative care and wellness, nutrition majors are primed to make major societal contributions. And, oh yeah, jobs will be plentiful as hospitals, nursing homes, and outpatient care centers are expected to hire a new wave of dietitians and nutritionists in the coming decade. Some students also look to this area of study as a precursor to medical school or an advanced degree in another healthcare field.
