Study Program Doctorate

In response to development challenges and to anticipate the impact of nutrition-related problems on the quality of human resources, competent professionals are required who are capable of addressing nutrition issues through continuous innovation and in alignment with advancements in science and technology.
Since 1994, IPB has developed the first Doctoral (Ph.D.) Program in Nutrition in Indonesia under the name Doctoral Program in Community Nutrition and Family Resources (GMK), strengthened by Rector’s Decree No. 031/K13/PP/2002. Following internal restructuring at IPB in 2007, the program was refined into the Doctoral Program in Human Nutrition (GMA) based on Rector’s Decree No. 027/K13/PP/2007, administered by the Department of Community Nutrition, Faculty of Human Ecology.
In 2014, the program was renamed the Doctoral Program in Nutrition Science in accordance with Rector’s Decree No. 177/IT3/DT/2014. Subsequently, in 2026, based on Rector’s Decree No. 34, the management of the Doctoral Program in Nutrition Science was transferred from the Faculty of Human Ecology (FEMA) to the Faculty of Medicine and Nutrition (FKGiz).
