Bachelor of Science [B.S] (Dietetics)
Field of Study:
₹35.5 L/Yr
In 2024, entrance into the profession will be at the Master’s level. A minimum of a Master’s degree must be earned to sit for the national examination. Dietitians assess nutritional needs, plan individualized dietary plans, provide counseling and evaluate nutritional care for individuals and groups.
The Dietetics major is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND), 120 South Riverside Plaza, Suite 2190, Chicago, IL 60606-6695, (800) 877-1600. Students in the Dietetics Coordinated Program will graduate in May of their senior year, but must also complete a 6 credit externship immediately thereafter in order to receive a verification statement certifying that all coursework and supervised practice requirements have been completed. This statement qualifies the student to sit for the national registration examination, which they must pass in order to become a Registered Dietitian. The externship entails 6 weeks (40 hours/week) of intensive supervised practice experiences. Students will register for the externship as a non-degree student and will incur an additional expense.
