Food and Nutrition Facilities
The Health Professions Center houses Kinney College of Nursing and Health Professions and the Food and Nutrition program. Food and Nutrition facilities include these training areas:
- Our Quantity Foods Kitchen features a variety of state-of-the-art food preparation equipment and a cooking demonstration station.
- An assessment lab is used for completing anthropometrics, body composition, blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol measurements.
- A counseling and education room houses up-to-date nutrition education materials, models, curriculum, journals, and audio visuals. Students also use this space to meet with actual clients, either in-person or through telehealth, to assist with nutrition needs.
- Our interdisciplinary Learning Resource Center houses computers that incorporate software for analyzing recipes, diets or working with data.
- Our newly remodeled Nutrition and Food Science Lab is a dynamic, multifunctional classroom designed for hands-on learning in culinary and food science education. Furnished with state-of-the-art food science equipment and thoughtfully arranged cooking stations, it bridges theory and practice, empowering students to develop essential culinary skills and apply food science principles. This facility enhances experiential learning, fosters community, and prepares future nutrition professionals to translate nutritional knowledge into real-world, behavior-changing practices.
