The Graduate Program in Nutrition originally existed on the Norman campus. In the fall of 1989, the Graduate Program began to undergo a transfer to the Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City, which became official in 1991. Students seeking a MS Degree from the Department of Nutritional Sciences can take courses at the OUHSC in Oklahoma City or can earn a degree through distance education at the Schusterman Center in Tulsa. The MS in Nutritional Sciences has an emphasis on advanced training and research methodologies. The MS in Nutritional Sciences (1228M) requires a minimum of 34 credit hours beyond the BS degree and may be taken as either a thesis or non-thesis option.
