Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics - alternatives?

[whitecatdisguised]

Siiigh,
I know it's quite late, but my dream of becoming an industrial designer might be withering. I'm not so motivated for it.
Two years ago I was really thinking about being a nursing dietitian/nutritionist, but my dad was really against it.
But my dream of being an industrial designer shocks my dad even more.
Now I realise I want to be a dietitian.
I looked up the prerequisites for it at Monash University; Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics.
I need at least 30 in English and 30 in Chemistry.
Unfortunately, I don't have Chemistry as one of my subjects.
My subjects are all over the place.
It's also too late to change my subjects.
(I also really suck at science... but I really would've tried if I knew where I wanted to go for my university years).

I'm wondering if there are any alternatives that can lead me to become a dietitian?
I couldn't happen to do a double degree could I? (With industrial design & dietetics).
Would reeallly love to hear suggestions!
Thank you~

I'm guessing just a normal Science course could be tailored for dietetics specialisation. Try contacting a uni directly or have a look here: http://www.daa.asn.au/index.asp?pageID=2145833487

There we go:

Deakin University
Master of Dietetics (Code: H718)
Three semesters, (18 months) post Bachelor of Science
For further information, contact Deakin University

Deakin is probably a better university for it anyway, since they've been offering dietetics longer.

Latrobe has health sciences master of dietetics. Its new this year and the ATAR clearly-in was around 90. If I were you id go there. Common first year means you can change into the other masters programs they have there if youre not totally happy.
