Study Community Nutrition at Otago

Clocktower.

Overview

From 2013 the distance-taught Postgraduate Diploma in Science (PGDipSci) with a major in Community Nutrition is no longer available. If you’ve already completed CMNX papers towards this qualification, you will receive credit for the corresponding NUTX paper as you transition to the new Health Science qualifications described below (i.e. CMNX 401, CMNX 402, CMNX 406, CMNX 407 would be credited, respectively, as: NUTX 401, NUTX 402, NUTX 404 and NUTX 407).

Commencing in 2013, the Postgraduate Diploma in Science in Community Nutrition is being replaced with three new endorsements in Human Nutrition within the ‘Health Sciences suite’ of programmes:

  • Postgraduate Certificate in Health Sciences endorsed in Human Nutrition
  • Postgraduate Diploma in Health Sciences endorsed in Human Nutrition
  • Master of Health Sciences endorsed in Human Nutrition

For example, if you have completed one CMNX paper you will be eligible to enter the PGCertHealSc programme (provided you are able to fulfil the requirements for the Certificate in the specified timeframe) and have the respective NUTX paper credited from your completed CMNX paper.  Alternatively, you can transition from the Postgraduate Diploma in Science in Community Nutrition to the Postgraduate Diploma in Health Sciences (Endorsed in Human Nutrition).
