The Department of Nutrition and Food Technology Partners with Nutrium Software and Mobile App
The Department of Nutrition and Food Technology at An-Najah National University has partnered with Nutrium to allow students and faculty from the Department to use the software in order to compliment program objectives.
An-Najah University believes that education and new technologies used in combination will improve students' learning outcomes and give them essential tools for their future. Many of the students tend to go on to work in nutritional clinics, where being literate in the most cutting edge nutrition technologies is essential to their professional success.
The software will be integrated into two main courses including Nutritional Status Assessment; where students learn various methods of nutritional assessment like anthropometrics, biochemical tests, clinical signs and diet history and then the use of computerized software to make use of this information.
The students will continue the use of the software in the Meal Planning course, where they are given different cases of people with sicknesses and health problems and are then tasked with creating dietary menus to help them resolve their nutritional issues.
Students will have full access to Nutrium's features within this partnership; where they will be able to provide a comprehensive nutrition appointment, assessing the patient's history and anthropometric measurements, creating and analyzing meal plans and recipes. In addition to the software, they will be able to explore the patient's end with Nutrium's mobile app.
All students registered in this course will have free access to Nutrium software until the end of the course time period.
Notes:
Nutrium is the most up-to-date web-based software with a mobile app to focus on clients' progress. It consolidates the efforts of nutrition professionals and their clients by providing both the ability to monitor progress and compliance.
