Maternal and Child Clinical Nutrition

Specialization in Maternal and Child Clinical Nutrition

This course is for those who want safety, recognition, and real impact on maternal and child clinical practice.

Caring for pregnant women, babies, and children requires technical preparation, practice, clinical vision and constant updating. Many nutritionists report insecurity to work in this area so full of specificities, especially at the beginning of

their careers or during a professional transition.

The Postgraduate Program in Maternal and Child Nutrition at USP was created to solve exactly that: to train professionals who are confident, qualified and ready to apply scientific evidence in daily practice. You will leave with technical mastery and clarity to care for everything from pregnant women and infants to children and adolescents, with or without associated clinical conditions.

With more than 480 teaching hours, the course offers:

• Classes with leading specialists from USP
• Practical internship at the Institute for Children and Adolescents (ICR-HCFmusp)
• Real application of diet therapy in childhood and pregnancy diseases
• Training in nutritional assessment and supplementation
• Extra content on entrepreneurship, marketing, and office structuring

In addition to filling a gap in traditional training, the specialization also connects you to one of the most respected health centers in Latin America - opening doors to new opportunities and professional recognition.

If you want more than theory and certificates — you want the security to perform with excellence — this is your training.
