Bluffton University students can now follow two specialized tracks to earning their Master of Nutrition and Dietetics (MND). The two specialized tracks include eating disorders or sports nutrition. These two tracks will allow Bluffton University students to gain specific knowledge in two growing fields of nutrition and dietetics.
“At Bluffton University you can complete all coursework to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist in five years, obtaining both a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Nutrition and Dietetics,” said Bethany Dario, director of nutrition and dietetics. “Within these degreed programs students can elect to narrow their studies in two tracks, sports nutrition or eating disorders. This educational focus better prepares students by offering them opportunities to engage in supervised learning experiences within their specialization.”
