Our new Infant Feeding and Public Health module will be offered in May 2016. This is an optional module, and looks at infant feeding from a coordination or commissioning perspective. For students with a strong interest in nutrition it complements the Nutrition in Public Health module offered via the medical school programme; taken together would give your MA Health Promotion a thorough Nutrition Promotion underpinning, ideal if you want to look at nutrition in your dissertation.

The curriculum – and some of the speakers –  draws on the WHO/UNICEF Breastfeeding: Practice and Policy Course which Carol co-directed for more than 10 years at UCL-Institute of Child Health before joining University of Brighton.

It can also be taken as a single module, with or without the assessment. It would be an ideal ‘taster module’ if anyone wants to try out what masters level study at University of Brighton is like.
