I found a German explanation (extract above) but an extensive search in Google didn't yield an exact translation. Is there one or is this qualification peculiar to Germany? |

| Note from asker to answererThanks a lot for the help. I was looking for "Ocotrophology" - forgot I needed to change OE to E. I think I may consult the client on this because I think that the English-speaking world may have as much difficulty as I am having.

| Degree in Home Economics
Explanation:
Qualified Home Economist (although that sounds very odd)
Although ecotrophology gets a few hits on Google (and nowhere near as many as the German version), they seem to be mostly German-related.

Barbara - you don\'t need to include \'nutritionist\' separately. Home economics (at least at school level, so presumably also at degree level) includes the study of nutrition.
