专业概况

在这里学什么？

The Nutrition program has three curricular tracks, each of which provides a broad background in the biological, chemical, and nutrition sciences. Students take core courses in the sciences during the first two years of the program in addition to humanities and social sciences courses, included in the BU Hub requirements.

The nutrition science track provides academic preparation for those students who intend to go to graduate school in any of the life sciences, pursue medical or other professional studies, or seek employment in biomedical sciences, nutrition, or public health. The nutrition and health track is for students interested in pursuing careers in nutrition combined with other specialty areas such as public/global health or mass communications. The curriculum includes courses in basic science, nutrition, and food, along with courses in an area of concentration. The dietetics track focuses on professional practice and prepares students for careers as Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDN) in clinical nutrition, management, public health, research, and industry. Students who graduate with this track will have completed Boston University’s Didactic Program in Dietetics (DPD). They will be eligible to participate in the national computer matching process for Accreditation Council on Education for Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND)–accredited supervised practice programs (e.g., dietetic internships). Successful completion of a supervised practice program is required prior to taking the Commission on Dietetics Registration (CDR) national registration exam to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN).

The mission of the Boston University Programs in Nutrition, which includes the Boston University Didactic Program in Dietetics, is to establish an environment that promotes the acquisition of knowledge, critical thinking, and effective communication to prepare graduates for success in supervised practice leading to eligibility to take the CDR credentialing exam to become an entry-level Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, or to enter into a graduate degree program, or a job in a health-related field.

Learning Outcomes

Graduates will be able to recall basic food and nutrition information to design diets that reduce disease risk. Graduates will be able to describe and evaluate their experience providing nutrition care in a community setting. Graduates will be able to evaluate the quality of research articles published in peer-reviewed journals.
