Here’s what one of our winners had to say..
“Studying BSc Human Nutrition at Ulster University Coleraine has been a truly rewarding experience. The course exceeded any of my expectations, providing me with not only a comprehensive understanding of nutritional science but invaluable opportunities and enjoyable memories. The course has further amplified my desire to become a dietitian so I can advise, inform and also treat patients. The course & my placement year with both health promotion and community dietitians have undoubtedly contributed to me securing a place on the MSc Dietetics at the University of Chester, of which I will commence September 2018.
I am both humbled and grateful to Yakult for being the recipient of Outstanding Academic Achievement.”
