Dietitian Questions

Hello! I really want to do something in the medical field, and one of my options is to become a dietitian. My questions are: 1. Can I get a PhD for it? 2. If so, what are the differences between a regular dietitian and a dietitian with a PhD (e.g., difference in salary, difference in what they do, etc.)? Thank you!

What careers could I be headed towards?

Hey! My name is Abbey and I’m a first-year student at the University of St.Thomas in St.Paul Minnesota. Throughout my whole life, I've had an interest in sports, health, and the human body. Because of this, I decided to major in Exercise Science and double minor in Nutrition and Business Administration. I was looking at becoming an athletic trainer but decided against it a few months ago. I am really just looking for someone who has some knowledge in these areas, and could tell me a little bit of what I could go into when I'm older that includes my major and minors! And any other insights that I could find helpful in the future!

How can I become a Registered Dietitian?

Hey! I was wondering if anyone on here could tell me the process of how to become a registered dietician! Nutrition has always been something I've been interested in, and it would also be helpful if I was informed of other career paths I could take in this field other than an RD. I was also wondering what I could do in high school, such as volunteering and organizations that I can join, that are related to dietetics or nutrition. I can't seem to find any :( Thanks a lot!

Any good jobs to do while doing a master's in nutrition?

Master's program are more expensive than undergraduate programs. And loan repayment can be annoying. What kind of job or internship would you recommend doing (if possible) while studying nutritional science for a master's degree? Also, how did you stay frugal during those times? #nutrition #student-debt #finance #clinical-nutrition

What would be the daily life of a vegan registered dietitian?

I want to become a registered dietitian when I finish college but my diet is different from the majority of the population: I am a vegan. Would I have to conform to give advice and counseling to clients who follow the standard american diet? Or could I give them advice based on studies that show a shift towards a plant based diet? #career #science #jobs #job-search #career-development #nutrition #food

Majors as pre-med?

So I'm going to be a freshman in college this upcoming year, and I am majoring in dietetics. I am really interested in health and medicine especially when it is food related. I love the idea of being a dietitian, but I don't think that it will be challenging enough for me to be happy. I especially am interested in endocrine problems, but don't want to overwhelm myself. As I said, I'm majoring in dietetics but will be doing a two year internship while in college to become a registered dietitian and experience clinical work while taking classes; however, I also will be completing this in three years instead of four (since I already have 47 credits from dual enrolled classes in high school). I almost think that doing research as a doctor or being an endocrinologist would be the best fit for me, but I also want to learn as much as I can about dietetics. This would be extremely fast paced and am not sure if I would be better off to full on commit to one or the other? #doctor #science #medicine #health #nutrition
