What I enjoy most about the program is the faculty. It seems like the classes center around what they’re proficient in and also what they like. And the fact that I actually know my professors. It’s a much more tight-knit structure … one that allows you to get a lot more out of things because you’re more comfortable asking questions.

I love the professors that I’ve had; all of my them are subject matter experts. They’re all people who have worked in this industry for a while, and they’re super active in the field, too. It’s really cool to see people at the forefront of what we’re learning about. And they actually have a passion for it, too.

I have enjoyed meeting people from all over in my classes and being able to do group projects and collaborate with people from coast to coast as well as overseas. It was a great experience to talk to others with different perspectives and experiences and to build on my nutritional knowledge through interesting classes taught by great professors.
