Assistantships for MS Dietetic Specialization Graduate Program

The Department of Nutrition awards both teaching and research assistantships on a competitive basis.  If you are awarded an assistantship to help defray the cost of your education, please note that you must register for at least six graduate-level credits each semester (excluding summer).  The Graduate School requires all graduate students to take a minimum of 6 credits.  Failing to maintain this enrollment or earning less than a 3.0 GPA will jeopardize this financial assistance.   

The Graduate Dean's approval, with a note of explanation from the student's major advisor, is required to register for more than 12 credits in a semester.  For additional details regarding assistantships, please see Grad Assistantship Handbook.
