Overview

Career opportunities:

The MPH in Dietetics at University of Massachusetts Lowell prepares students for new, unique careers by combining two professional fields – dietetics and public heath. Both fields are projected to grow substantially in the next decade. With the MPH and RD credentials, you will be specifically trained to examine the intersection of food access, diet choices and public health.

You will be qualified for any traditional RD career pathway in clinical nutrition, food service and community nutrition, but can also find employment in health promotion, public health research, public health program development, design and evaluation, and policy analysis.
