The Department of Nutrition at I-Shou University places great emphasis on integrating professional nutrition knowledge with practical capabilities, assisting students in applying what they learn in class to real work environments through on-campus courses, experimental operations, and off-campus nutrition internships. Off-campus nutrition internships are a crucial part of professional nutrition learning, allowing students to observe the job responsibilities of dietitians in actual workplace settings, and to cultivate professional judgment, communication and coordination, and problem-solving abilities through participation in practical activities across different fields such as meal management, clinical nutrition, and community nutrition.
Hospital internships are an important stage in the professional development of nutrition students, allowing students to understand the professional role of dietitians in disease prevention, nutritional assessment, nutritional care, and health education through hands-on participation in healthcare team operations.
In accordance with relevant regulations governing student off-campus internships at I-Shou University, the "Guidelines for Student Off-Campus Internships of the Department of Nutrition at I-Shou University" are established. These operational guidelines primarily regulate course planning, internship qualifications, application and placement procedures, management during the internship period, grade assessments, and relevant important notices for students of the Department of Nutrition participating in off-campus nutrition internships.
