O objetivo desse artigo é avaliar o hábito alimentar e estado nutricional dos alunos que consomem no restaurante universitário (RU) de uma universidade pública do sul do Brasil, permitindo que um processo contínuo de vigilância nutricional fomente estratégias de promoção de saúde voltadas às principais necessidades dessa população. Estudo transversal avaliou 290 estudantes universitários, através de antropometria com IMC, perimetrias, bioimpedância elétrica para estimativa de composição corporal e questionário de hábitos alimentares. A amostra foi dividida em três grupos de frequência de consumo no RU, sendo 31,7% consumidores diários, 40,3% frequentes e 27,9% eventuais; 57,6% dos avaliados eram homens, e a média de idade foi de 23,8 ± 5,64.
