What our students say about us..
Nutrition and diet play pivotal roles in disease prevention and management, yet their significance often goes unrecognized in Nepal across various sectors, including community, academia, and clinical settings. Addressing this gap and cultivating a competent workforce in nutrition and dietetics, the CAFODAT COLLEGE, affiliated with Purbanchal University, stands out as a premier institution in Nepal, offering a Master of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. It was a great privilege for me to pursue my master's degree at CAFODAT COLLEGE.
Throughout my academic journey, CAFODAT COLLEGE fostered a vibrant learning environment for studying nutrition and dietetics, which greatly supported my educational endeavors. Additionally, I had the opportunity to engage with a comprehensive range of nutritional courses taught by esteemed faculty members who are experts in their respective fields. This enriched educational experience equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel as a dietitian.
Following the completion of my Master's degree, I served as a dietitian at the Nepal APF Hospital, where I worked diligently for five years as an Inspector of the Armed Police Force. Currently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Nutritional Epidemiology at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA. My academic and professional journey underscores my dedication to advancing the field of nutrition and dietetics. I am committed to utilizing my expertise to contribute meaningfully to research, policy, and practice in the realm of public health nutrition and dietetics.

"Coming from a biomedical background, I was quite skeptical at first to pursue MSc in Nutrition and Dietetics but I am forever grateful to CAFODAT for providing a conducive environment for learning and helping me achieve academic excellence. The education that I received here has been a transformative experience and has helped me realize my full potential. After graduating with an MSc in Nutrition and Dietetics from CAFODAT College, my drive for betterment has found a new momentum as a Nutritionist/Dietician and I will consistently take that extra leap to positively impact the community and the world that I live in as a whole. Lastly, I am grateful to the college and its faculty members for helping me become the best version of myself."

CAFODAT"To begin, I'd want to express my gratitude to "College of Applied Food and Dairy Technology-CAFODAT" for providing such a wonderful opportunity to explore the field of food technology. The active interaction, encouragement and communication of supportive, motivated, and helpful academics and staff from the years 2014 to 2018 and until now is much appreciable. Pursuing my undergraduate education at Nepal's best food science college was the best decision I'd ever made. My conviction of “Meticulously understanding things first by principles and practically applying them" helped me earn two gold medals as "University Topper" and "Science and Technology" faculty topper of the year 2018. Having said that, all students (present and future), "College of Applied Food and Dairy TechnologyCAFODAT" is doubtlessly the best institution of choice to invest in, shape, and secure your career as a food science professional, not only because of its curriculum, expert faculties and reputation, but more importantly, because of its wider research opportunities in areas of food and nutrition through its research unit. I've secured my future, and now it's your turn to do the same"

"What and how we study in college always lays a strong foundation to our future career. For me, what I have achieved in career so far has been possible due to all those interactive, motivating and practical classes received from competent and supportive professors at CAFODAT. I must say, being part of 4 years Bachelor in Food Technology Program was something my parents chose for me but the assistance from the college helped me complete my education with such an ease that I was happily obliged to join and complete 2 years M. Sc. Program in Nutrition and Dietetics from CAFODAT as well. Studying at CAFODAT has helped me to have critical mind and to really think out of the box. I have a strong gratitude towards CAFODAT family. "

"The six years of education (4 years Undergraduate and 2 years Graduate) that I acquired from CAFODAT nurtured me and catapulted my comprehension relating to Food Technology and Nutrition. Having a great learning environment, fully equipped facilities and with the guidance of resourceful faculties, CAFODAT provided me the footprints to pursue the career of my dreams successfully"
Ujjwal Rayamajhi
Food Research Officer (Government of Nepal)"It was a dilemma and a tough job for me to choose an appropriate subject and college to achieve a higher level degree in Nepal where I can expect to meet my goals. I found CAFODAT is only one college where Nutrition and Dietetics course has been run in the master's level under the faculty of science and technology in Nepal."
