Small Classes, Intimate Learning Environments
From their first day of classes in Medical Dietetics, students join a select cohort of classmates and take a variety of Med Diet specific classes that are closed to students outside the major. Medical Dietetic courses are taught by the same seasoned faculty who teach our undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students.
Research Experiences
Throughout the curriculum, students are exposed to current and ongoing research projects and researchers at the OSU Medical Center. Both honors and research options are available in all programs of study.
Preparation for a Variety of Graduate and Professional Programs
The Medical Dietetics major is just the starting point for many academic careers. This major is designed to provide a strong undergraduate preparation for those students who want to pursue further education in medicine and/or research. You will have time to complete the prerequisites for just about any professional program at Ohio State, including Physical Therapy, Medicine, Exercise Science, Public Health, Nursing, Journalism, Business, etc.
Individualized Attention
In addition to the opportunity to meet and know professors and researchers in our small class sizes, students will also interact with support staff throughout campus. You will have the same faculty advisor and tap directly into the rich resources Ohio State has to offer.
