UBC nutrition, AFAIK, you need to get a nutritionist license after grad (not easy and long process) to make a decent living

I know lot of Asian girls taking the Nutriton & Food Science at UBC,
it is relatively easier to study, and easy to find a job.
They could be Public Health Inspectors with starting salary or $50K,
the least they can do would be quality control for Food manufacturers.
Or HomeEc teacher, a job for life.

If I remember it correctly...few yrs ago when I was still at UBC... Food & Nutrition is belong to Agriculture Science..very easy to get in..but hard to study wor..
IMHO, a degree in nutrition is not that practical (at least not in Vancouver, i am not sure if that's the case in other places). Most of my friends with a nutrition degree cannot find a relevant job here (as in vancouver). If you want to be practical, study Dietetics or Food Science instead. However, I don't think one makes much as a QC/QA (~$40k on avg). As well, most major food plants are located on the East.
There is an average requirement to get admitted into a Food Science Major (~70%, not high), whereas there is none for Nutrition Major. In order to get certified as a public health inspector, you WILL need to go to BCIT.
welcome any opinions~
