Learn why Morgan chose Iowa State to pursue her dream of becoming a dietitian

Iowa State offers one of the few dietetics programs in Iowa and Morgan knew it was a great fit for her future career goals. She’s had three summer internships and looks forward to pursuing her master of professional practice in dietetics and becoming a registered dietitian nutritionist. 

“When I was deciding to become a dietician, I really loved the areas that I could explore and how I didn’t just have to pick one path and go on to that,” said Morgan. “So, if I decide that I don’t like a certain area, I can always switch and I know that I have the right education to do that.” 

Morgan also appreciated that her professors are also engaged researchers who brought the latest knowledge to the classroom. 

“Our professors always talk about their research and they want to incorporate that into their classes, which is really nice. I was able to learn a lot from them and their experiences,” said Morgan.
