About us
Sodexo, founded in 1966 in France, is a publicly-held corporation that delivers an array of services, nationally and globally. Sodexo manages facilities and provides multiple services in the following market segments: hospitals, senior living facilities, schools, universities, government, leisure, and corporate services. The diversity of potential internship sites allows Sodexo Dietetic Interns to complete their supervised practice in a variety of settings. As a result, we graduate self-directed leaders who are empowered to improve the health and wellness of others, and to advance the field of dietetics.
Sodexo Dietetic Internships is the merger of five previously independent dietetic internships, all of which were sponsored by Sodexo. The first Sodexo internship originated in Allentown in 1982 as a collaboration between Lehigh Valley Hospital and Wood Dining Services. We now function as one very large program where we accept over 100 interns each year.
Being the largest private employer of Registered Dietitians/Nutritionists (RDs/RDNs) in North America, our program has grown to be one of the nation’s leading Dietetic Internship Programs. Sodexo Dietetic Internships offer expertise, training and a wide scope of employment opportunities for future dietetic professionals.

In 2016, we collaborated with the University of Rhode Island to offer an optional Master of Science degree in Dietetics exclusive to Sodexo Dietetic interns. The graduate level classes and curriculum complement the internship rotations.
