Dietitians working in higher education either within athletics as performance RDNs or academic departments are uniquely positioned to build cross-disciplinary collaborations that support student education and create a new model of practice in performance nutrition. This presentation highlights how the University of Arizona's School of Nutritional Sciences and Wellness is expanding workforce demand and supporting student success through partnerships with athletics and the College of Fine Arts.
These new collaborations support the success of Didactic Program in Dietetics (DPD) students, Graduate Programs in Dietetics (GP) students, Individual Supervised Practice Pathway (ISPP) interns, student-athletes, and performance RDNs on campus. Curriculum developed to support these collaborations provide experiential learning opportunities for DPD and GP students and ISPP interns who gain valuable career, leadership, and life skills.
Performance RDNs are working with a new population of student-athletes and have increased their student and intern work force. More student-athletes across campus receive valuable evidence-based nutrition education and support.
