MSc in
Master of Science - Nutrition Sciences University of Nevada, Las Vegas School of Integrated Health Sciences
Introduction
The mission of the UNLV MS in Nutrition Sciences is to provide program graduates with the skills and knowledge to be comfortable and competent nutrition and dietetics professionals capable of providing excellent nutrition and dietetic services in numerous community, food service, management, and clinical settings.
The program will provide an evidence-based curriculum with a translation to clinical/professional practice. This degree will satisfy the possession of a master's degree requirement in order to sit for the National Registration Examination for Dietitians. This degree alone will not qualify an individual to sit for this exam- students still need to successfully complete an ACEND-accredited Didactic Program in Nutrition and Dietetics and an ACEND-accredited Dietetic Internship Program.
