Bachelor in BTS - Services - Diététique et nutrition

BTS Diététique et Nutrition is a two-year applied programme in dietetics and nutrition offered in French at Institut Limayrac in Toulouse, France. Dietetics is a health discipline that examines the relationship between food, nutrients, and human health, and trains practitioners to advise individuals and groups on nutrition in both clinical and community settings. Students study human physiology and metabolism, the nutritional composition of foods, therapeutic diet management, food hygiene and safety regulations, and health communication and counselling methods. The programme includes practical components that prepare students to work with patients or clients who have specific nutritional needs — whether due to chronic illness, age-related factors, athletic performance goals, or general health improvement. Graduates work in hospitals and care facilities, public health programmes, sports organisations, food industry companies, school food services, and private practice. In France, the BTS Diététique is a regulated qualification that leads to the national dietitian title, recognised by the health sector. The programme begins in September and lasts 2 years. Teaching is conducted in French. This is a practical, professionally oriented course suited to students with an interest in health sciences who want to work directly with individuals on nutrition and dietary planning across a range of settings and populations.
