课程简介
Dietetics is the practical application of nutrition in the prevention and treatment of disease. Dietetics is an exciting and challenging profession because there are many diseases that are related to nutrition. These include coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and obesity. We offer a supportive environment with relatively small class sizes, individual attention from well qualified faculty and opportunities for elective courses. This program is only offered on campus. Additional opportunities for faculty-student interactions are available through student organizations and research projects. Our Student Dietetic Association (SAND) features many interesting meetings, trips and activities. The study of dietetics teaches you to use nutrition in the prevention and treatment of diseases such as coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, cancer, diabetes and obesity. All of these are linked to what we put into our bodies. With an environment distinguished by supportive faculty and small class sizes, CMU prepares you to become a registered dietitian. Research, group work and involvement with the Student Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics enhance your experiences. An internship prepares you for careers in hospitals, schools, health care facilities and private industry. Some students choose to attend graduate school.
