What will I learn?

The MS RDN Professional Program is a 38-credit graduate program designed to be completed in 1.33 years (16 months) over four consecutive semesters: Fall I, Spring I, Summer I, and Fall II. This program combines rigorous coursework with comprehensive supervised experiential learning (SEL) opportunities, totaling at least 1,000 hours of practical experience. As a competency-based program, it prepares students to effectively promote nutrition, health, and well-being within their communities. With an increasing focus on healthy eating, disease prevention, and medical nutrition therapy in healthcare, the demand for dietetics professionals is growing. Upon successful completion, graduates will earn a Master of Science degree and be eligible to take the RDN Exam. Passing this exam will credential them as Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDN).
