About the Nutritional Sciences Master’s Program

The Master of Science in Nutritional Sciences (NS) degree requires a minimum of 33 semester hours (thesis option) or 36 hours (non-thesis option) for students in the basic M.S. program. For further information, see www.depts.ttu.edu/hs/ns/masters/docs/NS-MS-Degree-Plan.pdf.

For students who are in the combination M.S./Dietetic Internship program at Texas Tech University, a dietetic internship without an associated M.S. degree, and students who already hold Registered Dietitian credentials, an online master’s degree in nutrition and dietetics is available. This is a 33-hour, non-thesis degree. Courses must be chosen in consultation with an NS graduate advisor or dietetic internship director. For further information, visit www.depts.ttu.edu/hs/ns/masters/docs/Online_MS_NS_Degree_Plan.pdf.
