Overview

The Nutrition (MS-RDN) program at Columbia University specializes in clinical nutrition, sports nutrition, behavioral nutrition, nutrition education, and public health nutrition, all in an interdisciplinary context to adapt to the ever-evolving and exciting field of nutrition. Our Program is committed to attracting and supporting students, especially those historically underrepresented in the field of nutrition.

The program prepares graduates to work with individuals and groups in many settings, such as communities, worksites, healthcare facilities, businesses, government and international agencies, visual media, and private practice. Students complete additional courses beyond the core that prepare them to provide culturally competent food and nutrition education in various settings and through various media, to conduct individual and group counseling and patient education, and to participate in programs to improve environmental supports for behavior change.

The master's degree also prepares graduates to serve as resource specialists and curriculum developers in schools, communities, non-profit organizations, and universities.
