NUTRITION

Established in 2016, the Department of Nutrition at Ghatal Rabindra Satabarsiki Mahavidyalaya is affiliated with Vidyasagar University and follows the National Education Policy (NEP 2020) and the Curriculum and Credit Framework for Undergraduate Programmes (CCFUP). The department is committed to excellence in nutrition, dietetics, food science, and public health through a balanced blend of theory and practical learning.

The department offers well-equipped classrooms and specialized laboratories for anthropometric assessment, biochemical analysis, and therapeutic food preparation, enabling students to develop essential clinical and laboratory skills.

Learning is enriched through co-curricular activities such as National Nutrition Month (Poshan Maah), the Annual Departmental Food Festival, student seminars, and community-based surveys. These programmes strengthen students’ research abilities, communication skills, leadership, and community engagement while promoting health awareness.

The six-semester curriculum covers nutrition fundamentals, food science, clinical dietetics, therapeutic nutrition, and medical nutrition therapy. By integrating classroom instruction, laboratory training, and fieldwork, the department prepares graduates for careers in hospitals, healthcare organizations, food industries, public health agencies, and higher education, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and social responsibility required for professional success.
