Nutrition experts examine how food impacts wellbeing and use this knowledge to address widespread health issues. Earning a master's in this expanding discipline equips you for roles in research, clinical practice, community health, nutrition instruction, or pursuing a doctorate.
The University of Massachusetts Amherst provides both thesis and non-thesis tracks for its MS in nutrition. The thesis path builds research skills for academic or PhD pursuits, while the non-thesis route helps students meet coursework requirements to become registered dietitians (RDs) as mandated by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, including completing the didactic program in dietetics (DPD).
