What Our Alumni Say

Student Voices - speech bubbles

From the Class of 2023

"The online masters program was a great experience!

"The 2-year plan provided a pace that allowed me to be successful in class while maintaining the responsibilities of a full-time job and family life. The coursework was relevant and immediately applicable at my job where I assess scientific publications and translate the findings for lay people. 

"The instructors seem genuinely interested in student success and are available to offer guidance and answer questions."

Student Voices - speech bubbles

From the Class of 2020

"I am passionate about incorporating preventative nutrition-based care into my future clinical practice to help combat some of our nation's leading chronic diseases. Completing the MSNS enabled me to solidify my knowledge of nutrition and now, as a medical student at Ponce Health Sciences University, I have been able to excel in some of my classes while integrating my medical knowledge with my previous experiences. 

"I am truly forever grateful to the MSNS program for helping me provide the most wholistic care for my future patients."
