Con la asignatura de Salud Pública para el grado de Nutrición Humana y Dietética se pretende que el alumnado adquiera conocimientos y habilidades relacionadas con las competencias profesionales de la salud pública para proteger, promover, garantizar y restaurar la salud de las personas.

También permite comprender la importancia del desarrollo de políticas de salud y de nutrición y su contribución en respuestas sociales para mantener, proteger y promover la salud. Y por último algunos aspectos relacionados con la prestación de servicios sanitarios en consonancia los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) de la ONU (2015), en el marco de la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible.
Así mismo propende por la formación del trabajo en grupo y en equipos interdisciplinarios, desde que la salud pública en el ámbito de la nutrición y la seguridad alimentaria requiere de acciones de carácter intersectorial y multidisciplinario para el fortalecimiento del grado de control de los ciudadanos sobre su propia salud, alimentación y nutrición.
