A unique Distance Dietetic Internship Program with both full time 25 week (or less with PAL credit) or part time 38 week (or less with PAL credit) with offices in the Metropolitan Boston area, during which you will make life-long friends from other parts of the country while completing your Internship, enjoy the support of your family and friends, save money on relocation, rent, food and transportation, network and make contacts for future employment right where you live. We are a large Internship (accredited for 143 Interns annually), but we maintain a small Internship culture by having our Interns working in small groups throughout Our Program. The Clinical, Food Service and Community rotations are equally divided into 6 weeks (5 days per week) and an Elective rotation which is 7 weeks in length (5 days per week). Our part time option option is 3 days per week for 38 weeks. (Two days at your site and 1 day at your home office.)
