Nutrition and Dietetics Scholars

Saint Louis University's Nutrition and Dietetics Scholars program is an exclusive opportunity for freshmen to be guaranteed a position in 博彩网址大全's Master of Science/Dietetic Internship program after completing their undergraduate Nutrition and Dietetics' degree at 博彩网址大全.

The program allows students seeking careers as Registered Dietitians to gain valuable health care credentials prior to entrance into the post-baccalaureate MS/DI program. This preparatory education, in conjunction with the nutrition and dietetics program's didactic and clinical curriculum, enriches the graduate's expertise and competence. In addition, it allows students the opportunity for a rewarding health care career should they elect not to continue in the graduate MS/DI program upon completion of their bachelor's degree.
