Program Description

Majors study the relationships between the dietary intake of whole foods versus processed foods, nutrients, dietary supplements, the health of individuals and populations, as well as health equity. Majors prepare for careers in medical nutrition therapy, food service administration, public health nutrition, government agencies, private practice, and consulting. The program also prepares majors for pursuing advanced degrees, academic research, and careers in food and wellness industries. There are three degree tracks. One degree track involves a nutrition and foods major accompanied by a minor. The second degree track is the dietetics concentration, which is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND) and fulfills didactic requirements for Texas licensing. Graduates of this track who complete all ACEND requirements will receive a Verification Statement and are qualified to apply for post-graduate dietetic internships in pursuit of Registered Dietitian certification. The third track is for students pursuing the Texas Teacher Certification Requirements.
