Students are eligible to apply for the Integrated Dietetic Internship during their third year of the Foods and Nutrition program. By combining the degree program with the internship, students can finish both in just four and a half years. The internship includes two months of clinical nutrition and food service placements after the third year, followed by seven months of additional placements in clinical nutrition, food service management, and community nutrition after completing the fourth year. Interns gain diverse experience through placements with registered dietitians nationwide, working in hospitals, long-term care facilities, public health agencies, community organizations, government settings, and private practices. A dedicated full-time professional practice coordinator provides personalized support to each intern, creating tailored training plans to ensure readiness for entering the dietetics field.
