Dietetics
Our dietetics curriculum is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Dietetic Education of the American Dietetic Association. Accreditation is given to Didactic Programs in Dietetics (DPD), that are in compliance with the Standards of Education. When you complete the DPD, you are eligible to apply for dietetic internships. Completion of the internship qualifies you to take the national registration exam, and passing it earns you the title of Registered Dietitian.
