Mysore/Mysuru: Nutrition is the cornerstone for a good physical and mental health and general well-being. In recent times, the subject of Nutrition and Dietetics seems to have caught the attention of students and public alike. 

Sports Nutrition is yet another transdisciplinary subject which is focused on increasing awareness among health conscious and sports persons. In India, there is a huge gap between the need for sports Dietitian / Nutritionist and availability of one. This opens a great opportunity for students who are passionate in making their career in the field of Sports Nutrition.

Keeping in mind the ever- growing need of Sports Nutritionist in India and abroad, JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research, Mysuru, is starting a two-year Master’s Degree programme in Sports Nutrition and Management from this academic year (September 2020-2021). The course will cover subjects like Sports Physiology, Sports Specific Diets, Nutritional Biochemistry, Human Nutrition, Basic Management subjects, among others.

With the knowledge that physical activity promotes good health and disease-free longevity and sports becoming a lucrative career choice, this course will benefit students who want  to make a career as Sports Dietitian/ Nutritionist.
