Food and nutrition is a rapidly growing global industry. If students want to be a part of it, Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Food and Nutrition Management program will fit students to a tee. The program develops skills in all three areas—food, nutrition and management. This opens doors to careers in food and nutrition in hotels, restaurants, hospitals, post-secondary institutions, remote mine sites and more.
Food and Nutrition Management is a nationally accredited two-year diploma program offered at Saskatchewan Polytechnic Saskatoon Campus . Build practical, hands-on knowledge and skills in food, nutrition and management, including:
Hands-on training in food preparation and cooking is an important part of the program. As a supervisor or manager, students need to know food service from both sides of the “house.” Students' practical training in nutrition includes nutritional assessment, menu planning and writing specialized diets as part of overall health treatment plans. A practical experience in students' second year provides on-the-job training in food and nutrition management in acute care, long term care and/or commercial settings. Students will also polish their management skills during a one-month project at Le Bistro, the popular coffee shop on Saskatoon Campus.
When students graduate, they will be able to work as a food service supervisor, catering manager, nutrition manager, diet technician, quality control manager or marketing/sales consultant for a food manufacturer. Look for jobs in the food service departments of hospitals and long-term care homes, in hotels, restaurants and catering companies, in schools, colleges and retirement communities.
