PROFESSIONAL BACHELOR PROGRAM IN
NUTRITION & DIETETICS
Becoming a Nutrition & Dietetics student
in Leuven
If you are looking for a life-changing experience as an exchange student, UC Leuven-Limburg may be
exactly what you are looking for. For Nutrition and Dietetics we have developed an Autumn-semester
exchange program in English. In Spring we welcome
those students who want to undertake a traineeship in combination with a research project. Every se-
mester starts with an introduction week for ex-change students. You are most welcome to partici-
pate in this program as an Erasmus or exchange
student or as a free mover student at the Health campus of the faculty of Health and Social Work in
Leuven. Both programs offer a selection of our regular scien-
tific education program with a broad curriculum providing students with the theoretical knowledge
and practical skills to graduate as excellent dieti-
cians.
Our English study program gives you the insight of
the composition of food and its influences on health
and illness. Our students learn to analyse nutritional requirements and to deal with evidence-based appli-
cations, such as applying results of scientific litera-ture into practical advices for clients and patients. In
this, theory and practice go hand in hand.
UC Leuven-Limburg offers also a number of general-courses which are of general interest to all exchange
students. Each of those open courses can be includ-ed in your study program – The aim is 30 credits/
semester
University College Leuven-Limburg (UC Leuven)
Internationalisation is our core business. We create an
international campus among others by attracting students
for our degree and exchange programs. More than 500 young people with an international background al-
ready study with us. Almost the same number visits us annually for a short or long exchange program.
The attraction of student cities such Leuven is their small
format and the safe, green surroundings. Our campus-
es are situated at the heart of Europe With fast and easy access to our surrounding countries and either the sea and
hilly regions and with an overwhelming offer of festivals, performances, cultural centers or museums, you will find
it impossible to be bored.
Are you also convinced that a study in Flanders will ad-
vance your career and life? We have a number of options to offer you as a degree student or an exchange student.
