Program details

Overview

The Didactic Program in Dietetics Certificate at Simmons is a graduate-level, in-person course of study for people who already hold a bachelor's degree and want to finish the nutrition coursework that precedes registered dietitian credentialing. The program is accredited by ACEND. Students can take it alone or alongside the master's in Nutrition and Health Promotion, and some master's courses count toward certificate requirements. A separate Dietetic Internship supplies the supervised practice stage of credentialing. Time to completion depends on prior science and nutrition coursework, and may range from one to two years. Transfer courses are reviewed individually, and applicants send course details by email for evaluation. Students enrolled in the Friedman School at Tufts University may apply for a joint MS and certificate arrangement with Simmons.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: A bachelor's degree from an accredited institution is required.
