OMU NUTRITION AND DIETETICS SOCIETY
Ondokuz Mayıs University Nutrition and Dietetics Society (OMÜBEST) was established by the students of the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics in the 2019-2020 academic year. The club, which initially operated as a Nutrition and Health Club, applied to become a community in 2020 and continued its activities as a Nutrition and Dietetic Society since the 2021-2022 academic year.
As students of the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics at Ondokuz Mayıs University, the aim of our community is to contribute to the creation of an environment where students can express themselves, to research and discuss issues in the field of Nutrition and Dietetics, and to organize scientific, social and cultural activities in line with this purpose. With its activities, it aims to raise awareness and enlighten the community members first and then the society. The group aims to be beneficial and add perspective to its members on the way to become professionally competent and ethical dietitians.
As of the 2022-2023 academic year, 17 people take part in the OMÜBEST Board of Directors. There are 246 community members in our community, 172 of which are active members. Head of the group, student Emre YILMAZER and academic advisor Dr. Instructor Its member is Yasemin ERTAŞ ÖZTÜRK.
