I want to work in a hospital setting/be a dietitian, is MNU right for me?

In our experience, if you are looking to work within a doctor’s surgery or hospital setting, job specifications tend to list Dietetics degrees or Nutrition MSc/PhDs.

If you do have an ideal job/setting in mind, we definitely recommend looking at current job opportunities and reading the essential or desirable requirements they have listed. For instance, if you want to be a dietitian, the only way to do this is to complete a dietetics degree or post-graduate programme. You can find out more about the differences between MNU and a degree by reading: What is the difference between MNU & a degree in nutrition?

We’re also pleased to say that some of our graduates have successfully used the MNU Certification to strengthen their application for nutrition-related degrees and post-graduate degrees as well as jobs within the NHS such as Dietetic Assistant positions. However, currently, there are no formal arrangements or outcome pathways for this. To find out more, you can read: Will I be able to use MNU to support a University application?
