An innovative approach in supervising undergraduate projects within dietetics and human nutrition courses

Abstract

We are writing to report an innovative approach that we have adopted for supervising undergraduate research projects within the BSc Nutrition and Dietetics programmes, and to suggest this approach to other colleagues in this discipline. This is based on our experience in investigating Diet, Lifestyle and Health (DLH) of University Students using a collaborative approach. To our knowledge, this collaborative approach including the group supervising of final year undergraduate students is new in the field of Nutrition and Dietetics.
