Learning Research Service Volunteer Engagement

Established in 2000, the UPEI Integrated Dietetic Internship is an innovative and progressive program. Students who qualify for this program have the opportunity to complete both the BSc in Foods and Nutrition and the Dietetic Internship in just four-and-a-half years.

The objectives of the program are a) to enhance teaching and the learning experience of participating student interns through the integration of theory and practice in nutrition and dietetics, and b) to provide dietetic interns with opportunities to develop the skills needed to achieve the competence of an entry-level dietitian, as defined by Dietitians of Canada.

The program includes three levels of non-classroom learning experiences, which vary between 36 and 42 weeks, depending on student learning needs and placement availabilities.
