My Defining Moments: Why you should study Nutrition at Leeds Beckett University Beth, a graduate from our Nutrition course, shares her most memorable moments studying at Leeds Beckett University. My name is Beth Vickers, I studied Nutrition at undergraduate over at City Campus and then I studied my master's in Sport and Exercise Nutrition for postgraduate. A key moment for me was in my second year and I made the decision to join the women's rugby union team. I can now look back and say that that has built my entire friendship group that I have in Leeds today and that was some five years ago now. So I'm incredibly grateful for doing that now and again, you know if I hadn't have done that I just genuinely don't know what my life would be like now. It's definitely changed my life for the better.
