What is the length of time for each rotation/field placement?
The length of each rotation varies considerably depending upon the facilitys schedule and the interns background and preferences. Generally, interns spend 11-12 weeks in nutrition therapy (hospitals, dialysis centers, long-term care facilities), 6-7 weeks in food systems management (hospitals, schools, assisted living centers), and 8 weeks in other community/clinical/business settings (diabetes centers, public health departments, private practices, etc.). The type and length of rotations are individualized for each intern.
