Nutrition and Dietetics

Concerns about health and obesity-related diseases have caused many Americans to adopt healthier diets. Additionally, restaurants and food service companies are also making information about nutrition more accessible to consumers. Those interested in assisting others with their dietary concerns can find many career opportunities in the field of nutrition. Opportunities are available with healthcare clinics and food production and service companies, and through working individually with people concerned about their nutrition habits.

Many entry-level positions in the field of nutrition can be obtained with a bachelor's degree in such fields as food service management, foods and nutrition, and dietetics. Nutrition specialists are also frequently required to satisfy licensing requirements in the respective state where they want to practice.
