Me, an RD? Cool!

According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the leading professional organization for dietitians, a dietitian is the food and nutrition expert.  Although many times students think that registered dietitians only work in the hospital (or acute care) environments, dietitians work in food industry (think Keebler, Kraft, Campbells, Mars, and Hershey), food service (Marriott, Hilton, school lunch programs, and McDonald’s corporate), education (community colleges and universities), research (Monsanto and ADM), and public health (WIC, food sanitation inspector, and lobbyist). For more information on becoming a registered dietitian, visit the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
