Major: Nutrition (This Major's Salary over time)
I've read some of the reviews and it sounds like a lot of the kids complaining are looking for a party school. I transferred into RIT from taking a few years off of school. Yes the course work is very challenging and the campus is a bit drab, but the school really seems concern that you get a job. About the nutrition dept. at first I was upset about it being connected to the hospitality school, but after learning what make a successful dietitian it makes sense to learn some of the skills like food production and marketing. The co-op are in place for you to network and to insure that you have a one-up when you apply for the internships. RIT is all about teaching young students what it well be like in the real world, but this is hard for students who have already worked in the real world and this can be frustrating at time. But this program does have a lot of connections in the Rochester area and a lot of the dietitians around here graduated from RIT. All in all I hope I am getting what I paid for in this school (I'm pretty sure that I am).
