Exploring Human Studies and Nutrition: In the world of human studies and nutrition, two essential courses pave the way for students to embark on meaningful careers and foster a deeper understanding of human well-being. Introduction to Human Studies lays the foundation by covering a broad spectrum of topics, including counseling history, stress management, mental health, and effective communication. Students craft portfolios to track their growth, acquiring both soft and hard skills crucial for careers in fields like social work, counseling, and public advocacy. Complementing this, Nutrition Across the Lifespan dives into the principles of nutrition and its profound impact on health throughout life. Through hands-on cooking labs and portfolio creation, students not only learn the science of nutrition but also develop practical culinary skills and knowledge, making this duo of courses a comprehensive exploration of human health and well-being.
