Which major, food science or nutrition, is easier to find a job after graduation and has a high success rate of immigration?

Hello, the major of nutrition aims to cultivate students to form clear basic principles of nutrition, covering food composition, human body's demand for nutrients, how the human body processes and absorbs food and nutrients, and so on. Through the course, students will form a comprehensive understanding of nutrition, biochemistry and physiology, thus laying a solid knowledge foundation for improving the health level of individuals and people of different ages and community health. This major also includes the internship training stage, including: dietary assessment, human nutrition assessment and skills training required for divergent thinking.

Food science is a discipline based on biology, chemistry, physics and other basic disciplines, and it is also closely related to various disciplines, including human nutrition, microbiology, biochemistry, biotechnology, processing engineering and so on. All these subjects play a very important role in students' understanding of food production, manufacturing and consumption. The disciplines involved in food science mainly include: food production (product research and development, processing and packaging); Food composition (food chemical analysis); Food additives (vitamins, preservatives, pigments, seasonings); Food stability (shelf life, microbiology); Safety (food toxin, food poisoning); And food perception (taste, appearance, smell, texture).

In fact, it is relatively easy for these two majors to find employment and immigrate in New Zealand, and it is difficult to distinguish who is better. Nutrition will pay more attention to communication with people in future employment and provide solutions for customers; The employment direction of food science is mainly to do scientific research in food companies.
