At the UB, the field of food and nutrition is not only the focus of various research groups' work, but also of two bachelor's degree programmes (Human Nutrition and Dietetics, and Food Science and Technology) and a number of master's degree and postgraduate courses.

To promote the studies in question and encourage research that links the different sciences with everyday life, the UB organizes an award for upper secondary school students' research projects on food and nutrition. In 2015, the award was issued for the sixth time.
