Health Education????

When I go to college I really want to take health and nutritional studies but as i looked it up, they just offered health sciences and health care and all that stuff so i have 2 questions: what major or school does health education fall under?? is health sciecnces and health/nutritonal studies the same thing???

1. It depends on your end goal. Allow me to explain. Let's say I want to be a P.E. teacher. I would recieve a degree in health and human performance with a bachelor of science and would fall under the college of education in most universities. Let's say I wanted to be a trainer. I would recieve a bachelor of science and would fall under the college of medicine as my curriculum would greatly differ then the prior. Most colleges offer majors in health and human performance as a bachelor of science with some indicator as to which field you wish to go into. As far as is health science the same as nutritional studies, I would say no, but I would look in your college course catalog and talk with a counselor.
