You will learn about health promoting behaviour such as nutrition, regular exercise and lifestyle programmes. This way, you prevent people from becoming ill, rather than treating them when they are already ill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group featured-block\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"does-this-sound-familiar\">Does this sound familiar?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You are interested in health and health-promoting lifestyles<\/li><li>You are good at biology and chemistry<\/li><li>You want to make a difference by helping others<\/li><li>You are analytical and forward-thinking<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"majors\">Majors<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"accordion\" id=\"accordionSector128\"><a name=\"food-science-and-nutrition\"><\/a><div class=\"card\">\n                <div class=\"card-header\" id=\"headingSector210\">\n                    <h2 class=\"mb-0\">\n                    <button class=\"btn btn-link btn-block text-left\" type=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapseSector210\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"collapseSector210\">\n                    Food Science and Nutrition\n                    <\/button>\n                    <\/h2>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapseSector210\" class=\"collapse show\" aria-labelledby=\"headingSector210\" data-parent=\"#accordionSector128\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body\">\n<p>Do you want to learn more about how your diet affects your health? Then you should take a look at the major in Food Science and Nutrition. Within this major, you will study the relationship between a person\u2019s food intake and that person\u2019s health. You will learn about a wide range of topics related to food, such as eating patterns, healthy nutrition, food safety, and metabolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interview with a Food Science and Nutrition student<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Lavil (21) is a year five student at the Faculty of Food Science and Technology of ITC. Lavil chose this major because he wants to <strong>make sure that Khmer farmers get a good price for their products.<\/strong> Food Microbiology and Food Chemistry are subjects Lavil likes, but he likes <strong>Nutrition and Health best<\/strong> because he loves to know about the mechanism of food in the human body. He still needs to study the standard for food safety. In the future he would like to <strong>work in quality control or quality assurance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His advice for students who are interested in this major: Especially pay attention to <strong>Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology<\/strong>. ITC has an <strong>entrance exam<\/strong> and expects students to be outstanding in these subjects and in logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The following universities offer this major:<\/h4>\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/studymatch.org\/en\/university\/prek-leap-national-college-of-agriculture\/\">Prek Leap National College of Agriculture, Phnom Penh<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/studymatch.org\/en\/university\/university-of-kratie\/\">University of Kratie, Kratie<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><sub>Please be aware that the majors offered by universities change over time and that the overview given on this page might not be entirely up to date.
