Our Dietetic Internship is a 10 month (~42-week), full-time, non-credit program hosted every August.
Designed to prepare eight interns annually (but are considering ten spots in the coming years), interns will work work with excellent instructors in outpatient clinics, various inpatient and community settings, classrooms, research and culinary laboratories, school classrooms, and other locations as they build confidence in their skills and broaden their understanding of modern dietetics. Upon program completion, graduates are prepared to take the RD board exam administered by ADA's Commission on Dietetic Registration. This program also prepares graduates for state licensure where they plan to practice. Below are several resources to learn about our curriculum. Note these are based on the 2009-2010 year (8 interns). Curriculum schedules, supervised practice experiences, and program costs are subjects to change each year. 1.
