Welcome
to the Department of Nutritional Sciences website. We
are excited that you are exploring educational
options in the field of nutrition and dietetics. Our
program
directors are here to assist you in finding the right
pathway to meet your professional goals.
According to the American Dietetic Association, “dietetics is the science
or art of applying the principles of food and nutrition to health”. As
a dietetic professional, you can work in a wide variety of settings helping people
of all ages. Dietitians do not just work in hospitals and clinics. You can find
dietitians in schools, health departments, food companies, research labs, pharmaceutical
companies, wellness clinics, and many other positions. New opportunities for
dietitians are emerging all the time. If you would like to help people learn
about food and nutrition then give us a call. We look forward to hearing from
you.
