NUTR 230Food and Culture4

Food and Culture examines how food functions in society and culture beyond the mere provision of nutrients. How do people use food to establish and communicate their individual, group, and social identity? How does food security contribute to social and cultural development? How do factors, including gender and ethnicity, influence food choices, food preferences, and views on health and wellness? These questions, and more, will be critically examined through reading, personal essays, and a group project that examines the foodways of a specific culture or ethnic group. Restrictions: Enrollment is limited to students with a major, minor, or concentration in Nutrition. Enrollment limited to students with the 2026-2027 Registration Cohort attribute.

NUTR 320Micronutrient Metabolism and Biochemistry2

Micronutrient metabolism is the study of micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and includes discussion of the food sources, process of digestion, absorption, metabolism, and biochemical functions of micronutrients. Micronutrients are essential in the diet and often play supporting biochemical roles in energy metabolism of macronutrients. Micronutrients are often supplemented in the diet and this course will discuss the risks and benefits of supplementation for various conditions and diverse/ global populations at the biochemical level. Metabolism and biochemistry are explored in this class by investigating deficiency or toxicity manifestations and resulting metabolic and physiological consequences. For example, how might someone with vitamin D deficiency be at higher risk for other metabolic conditions? Classroom time will explore micronutrient metabolism in depth and provide opportunities to apply the concepts to deepen understanding.
