<p>I'm a COMM major, but I would really like to do nutrition as well...anyone know what the Nutrition minor is like?</p>
<p>I did a nutrition minor! It’s a simple process to minor. You are required to take NS 115 and then you have to select 3 upper division classes.</p>
<p>For my minor I took:</p>
<p>NS 115: Nutrition, Health and Society
NS 331: Physiological and Biochemical Basis of Human Nutrition
NS 345: Phyicochemical Aspects of Foods (basically, intro to food science)
NS 441: Nutrition and Disease</p>
<p>Keep in mind that these classes have prereqs. NS 331 requires BioBM 331 (biochemistry: proteins and metabolism). NS 441 requires NS 331. </p>
<p>The nutrition department’s website lists all the requirements for a minor as well as the required paperwork (which isn’t due until March of your senior year).</p>
<p>I did the minor in nutrition. </p>
<p>I took NS115, NS345, NS275 (Human Biology and Evolution which didn’t have much to do with nutrition, but was the only upper level nutrition class that fit into my schedule that semester), and NS245 (Social science perspectives on food and nutrition or something like that). The minor was very easy to fulfill in my opinion. Depending on what area interests you in nutrition, there is also a food science minor.</p>
