During their studies, our students acquire knowledge and skills in the following areas:

The studies are dedicated to dietitians, trainers, people with education in the field of physical education, physiotherapy, food and nutrition or public health, as well as all those working or planning to start working on a daily basis with physically active people or athletes.
