Abilene Christian University

Abilene, Texas, United States

Master of Science in Nutrition/Dietetic Internship

Abilene Christian University’s combined M.S. in Nutrition/Dietetic Internship program is associated with CitySquare in Dallas, Texas. We are one of the first programs in the nation to offer an internship program with an emphasis on “Poverty and Community”.  

Consistent with the mission of CitySquare, interns during rotations will focus their time on the issues of “hunger,” “health,” “housing,” and “hope.”

  • Hunger - Interns will address hunger of those in poverty by working in the Opportunity Center Food Bank and the Summer Feeding Programs through CitySquare. The internship schedule will include several clinical rotations including but not limited to bariatric, cardiac, endocrinology, intensive care, oncology, pediatric, renal, surgical, and general medical.
  • Health - Along with the clinical experiences, an outpatient counseling rotation will address the health of the clientele using knowledge gained in the clinical rotations.
  • Hope - Hope is manifested in education and gaining skills for employment. Dietetic interns will be instrumental in helping teach basic culinary and food service skills in the cafe at the Opportunity Center at CitySquare.
  • Housing - Indirectly, housing will be addressed through intern involvement in teaching basic selection, procurement, and preparation of healthy meals for home use.

This program is designed to prepare students/interns with academic and clinical training to sit for the Registration Examination for Dietitians. Our mission is to prepare students/interns to be entry-level registered dietitians who model Christian values and to lead and empower individuals, especially those with economic needs, to achieve better nutrition and healthier lifestyles.
