Some of them work in the sports world, like athletic departments in colleges, soccer teams, football teams and basketball teams. Those who work with athletes generally become focus on treating athletes in college by earning their Bachelor of Science in Sports Medicine and Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Nutrition, Foods and Exercise. Some go on to earn Master’s degrees in Nutritional Sciences with an emphasis in sports nutrition, or a Master’s degree in Kinesiology.
