Between May and June, this website will be updates with new information reflecting the changes in our internship name from Sodexo Dietetic Internships to Sodexo Dietetic Internship with no "s", and changes made as result of new ACEND guidance in response to the COVID-19 crisis.
COVID-19 Update
Sodexo dietetic internship is continuing plans for the Fall Computer Match during the COVID-19 crisis. We have developed and implemented changes to our curriculum plans for our current interns to allow them to complete their supervised practice hours through simulation activities.
This is in alignment with ACEND’s COVID-19 guidelines. We will continue to assess the COVID-19 situation after the match and are developing contingency plans to prepare for the interns who will begin in September. These plans may include revision to orientation, modification of rotations and continued use of simulation activities.
These are very uncertain times. We don’t know the extent of the crisis for the fall. Moving forward, we will follow the guidelines set out by ACEND and the CDC. Our first priority is for our interns to feel safe and remain healthy.
Sodexo, the World’s leading private employer of Registered Dietitian Nutritionists, proudly offers a Dietetic Internship, where future nutrition professionals can continue their dietetics education in diverse and rewarding ways. The internship seeks to attract talented interns who wish to pursue a career with Sodexo after completing the internship.
Candidates who are selected for our internship may choose to complete their 32-hours-per-week* supervised practice experience in one of 12 regions throughout the United States. Once accepted to the internship program, internship faculty arranges the clinical and foodservice management rotation placements within Sodexo-managed accounts. Accepted interns may elect to apply to an accelerated Master of Science in Dietetics program through our partnership with the University of Rhode Island, Kingston, Rhode Island. The master’s program is 100% online.
Various geographical practice regions, the optional Master’s Degree track, and an exciting variety of concentrations including an international rotation through our leadership concentration, meet the needs of most interns, providing the flexibility to pursue specific areas of interest.
*Will you need to achieve your competencies in more or fewer hours per week? Once accepted, talk to your region’s director to explore ways to reasonably individualize your internship experience.
