Welcome to the Dietetics Program.
Starting Fall 2023, our ACEND accredited program will start offering a nutrition science track - non-thesis Combined BS/MS degree in Dietetics. The program is designed for outstanding undergraduate dietetic students so they can complete the MS degree in one year from the completion of the BS degree.

The Dietetics Program Director can evaluate your previous coursework and advise you on completing the coursework necessary to pursue the RD credential. You will also need to apply for admission at the University of Maryland.
