The program draws on the strengths of our College of Health Sciences, Appalachian State University, and indeed the whole region. Here are four reasons to consider Appalachian as your first choice destination for graduate school and an internship.

Program Highlights:
  • The program requires completion of either 39 credit hours with or without a thesis.
  • Research (NUT 5901 or NUT 5999) is conducted in the summer between the two years of the program.
  • The Dietetic Internship meets the competencies as mandated by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics.
