Introduction

 The nutrition and dietetics program is a didactic program that meets the standards of education of the American Dietetic Association. It prepares students with the basic  knowledge needed for entrance into post  -              baccalaureate internships and pre-professional practice programs which lead to eligibility
             for becoming a registered dietetian. Also, the program prepares students for entry-level
             positions in nutrition/dietetics, and food service management in hospitals, other health
             care facilities, cafeterias, restaurants and other food service, government agencies and
             businesses. With proper advertisement and careful course work selection, students are
             provided with a firm academic foundation for entering graduate school in food and nutrition.
