Job Outlook
- Employment of nutritionists is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2020. (From 2010 to 2020, employment is expected to increase by 20%.)
Things responsible for this level of growth include: - An aging population, mainly in nursing homes, which will call for a higher demand for nutritionists
- Also, an increased interest about the role food plays in our general health, wellness and treatment of diseases.
