You're
nearly there!
You've been working long and hard to complete a didactic program in dietetics.
You know you want to be a dietitian, but now you need to figure out which
dietetic internship program is best for you.
Are your primary interests as a health professional to promote health and prevent disease? Do you want to complete a master's degree program? If "yes", then SIU may be a good match.
Graduates of our combined master's degree and dietetic internship program find jobs in all areas of dietetics: community nutrition, clinical, and foodservice management. Please note that our coursework and internship emphasize community nutrition. So if you love providing nutrition education to individuals or groups, or if you picture yourself working in public health nutrition settings, SIU's program may be what you're looking for.
I encourage
you to give me a call, or e-mail me with your questions. If you want to
schedule a visit with me here at SIU, I'll be delighted to meet you and
provide answers in person.
Our students
are interesting and varied. They have come from many different states
and countries: Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Kentucky, New Mexico, Hawaii,
Ohio, Florida, Africa, Canada, and Greece, to name a few. If you want
to contact current or past students, just let me know, and I will arrange
it.
Good luck
with your search!
Sincerely,
