Educational objectives
The objective of the Master is to train professionals with specific skills in nutrition and human nutrition in their physiological and psychological aspects that are in line with the new emerging needs and with the new areas of intervention suggested by the ministerial guidelines on eating disorders. The area of human nutrition is very complex and is affected by biological, nutritional, psychic and social factors and their interactions, therefore the need for professional figures with high skills who, while maintaining specific roles and tasks, are able to interact with each other them in an integrated and coordinated way. The interaction between nutritionists, psychologists/psychotherapists, psychiatrists, medical specialists is of fundamental importance for establishing and maintaining the right relationship with food in order to obtain optimal psycho-physical well-being, which is by no means taken for granted in organization and management. The Master provides a training course focused on an integrated approach between these professional figures. Possible employment opportunities are: self-employed professional studies; institutions and private centers for the prevention of eating disorders and obesity; hospital wards where team work is required; associations and foundations whose activities are aimed at the prevention and maintenance of mental health and the promotion of proper nutrition.
