The Importance of the Higher Diploma in Sports Nutrition Program - From the Perspective of the Dean of the Faculty of Sports Sciences, Prof. Hassan Al-Saud.
The Higher Diploma in Sports Nutrition Program offered by the Faculty of Agriculture in cooperation with the Faculty of Sports Sciences is a strategic step that serves our sports community at all levels. The launch of this program reflects the University of Jordan's commitment to promoting academic innovation and cooperation between colleges to achieve common goals that serve the local and international community.
Sports nutrition is one of the most important pillars that contribute to raising the level of sports performance and enhancing the general health of athletes. Therefore, the existence of a specialized higher academic program that aims to qualify cadres in this field meets an urgent need in our sports community. The program does not only focus on scientific and theoretical aspects, but also provides students with the opportunity to apply it practically and design programs that suit the different needs of athletes, whether they are professionals or amateurs.
This program also represents an opportunity to enhance joint scientific research between the Faculty of Agriculture and the Faculty of Sports Sciences, which contributes to the development of modern nutrition strategies and achieving progress in the field of sports performance. Through this cooperation, we emphasize the importance of integration between different disciplines to ensure the provision of pioneering academic programs that contribute to the development of sports and society in general.
We believe that this program will play a pivotal role in enabling Jordan to become a regional center of excellence in the field of sports nutrition, enhancing the position of the University of Jordan as a scientific beacon that contributes to shaping the future.
