Dietetics is a professional program planned to meet the accreditation standards for the dietetics profession in Canada, and is the only dietetics program offered in British Columbia. You’ll explore general biological and social sciences courses, as well as specialized dietetics courses like basic and applied human nutrition, food and food systems management, and professional dietetic practice. The program involves five years of study: two prerequisite years and three program years (your fifth year is spent in internship placements at various locations across B.C.). Once you graduate, you’ll be eligible to practice as a registered dietitian upon application to a provincial regulatory body and successful completion of a national registration examination. Prospective applicants who are interested in working in dietetics internationally are advised to check registration requirements in the country where they intend to practice.
