OUR MISSION STATEMENT

The Texas State University Nutrition and Foods program mission is to: involve students in research, instruction, and service; advise students to achieve optimal education and career direction; prepare graduates for post graduate education; prepare graduates for careers in industry, dietetics, government, private advocacy programs, research, and/or academia; prepare graduates for supervised practice leading to eligibility for the CDR credentialing exam to become registered dietitian nutritionist; and promote life-long learning and pursuit of excellence for faculty and students.


OUR STUDENTS

Diet is a powerful tool that can improve and even prevent chronic conditions that plague our nation, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and cancer. Improving health through nutrition involves exciting research that spans from the cell to the community. Nutrition is a multidisciplinary field, involving biochemistry, physiology, microbiology, genetics, epigenetics, epidemiology, sociology, public health, policy, exercise, food science, and medical nutrition therapy. The Nutrition and Foods program at Texas State provides state-of-the-science education and training opportunities focused on1) the efficacy of specific nutrients and whole foods-based diets in the promotion of health and treatment of chronic diseases, and 2) promotion of healthy dietary patterns across the life course among diverse individuals and families, with the goal of fostering health equity.



Shemar Hawkins

Shemar's biggest accomplishments in the program so far have been building lasting relationships with professionals and peers, becoming the president of an Honor Society Phi U within FCS, and being asked to be a UGIA for 2 semesters.

His future plans include going to graduate school for Public Health with an emphasis on nutrition from a cultural lens. Shemar also wants to become an RD someday and he wants to work within a fitness facility that is owned and managed by himself and his older brother.
