Dietetic Internship 2013-2014 Schedule
Interns are scheduled for a minimum 40-hour week. Work hours vary and are determined by the preceptor to whom the intern is assigned. Additional time, outside of the 40 hours, is required to complete assignments, readings and projects. Outside employment is not recommended. Two sick days and two personal days off are allowed during the internship. Time off above and beyond these four days needs to be made up at the convenience of the preceptor. Memorial Day and Thanksgiving are official holidays for interns. Interns also receive one week vacation (in December).
