Are you a qualified nutritionist considering a move into dietetics? Or maybe you’re currently studying for your undergraduate dietetics degree and wondering if a postgraduate route could be the right fit. In this episode, we’ll be talking about what it’s really like to transition into postgraduate study, the skills and experiences you gain, and how to navigate the highs and challenges along the way.
Joining me are three wonderful guests - Beth Bainbridge, Ellie Stobie, and Emily Charlton - all of whom are currently in their final year of the MSc Dietetics programme at Leeds Beckett University.
Beth is 27 and from Middlesbrough. She studied Sport and Exercise Science at Leeds Beckett for her undergraduate degree, and before joining the master’s course, she spent two years working as a Dietetic Assistant and Personal Trainer. Ellie is 23 and from Lincoln, having completed her undergraduate studies at University of Leeds, where she transitioned from Food Science to Nutrition in her second and third years. And Emily is 24, originally from a village outside of Hull, and previously studied Exercise Science at the University of Hull.
