This one-of-a-kind program in the United States aligns with the core legacy of vegetarian nutrition at LLU. It can also serve as a stepping stone for the PhD in Nutrition, focused on plant-based nutrition research at the LLUSPH or any other PhD Nutrition programs. It is aimed to provide evidence-based didactic and research training to registered dietitians and other health care professionals on plant-based nutrition for the health of the individual, population, and the planet.

This program is entirely online (combines synchronous and asynchronous classes) with didactic training in nutritional science with a focus on the role of plant-based diet patterns, plant foods, and nutrients for promoting health, preventing disease, and sustaining the planet, along with the evidence-based approach to applying the principles of plant-based eating for the health of the individual and population. The program culminates in a research project with a publishable manuscript or a written report.

The program provides background experience for those interested in research careers in academic or industry settings, provides advanced training in plant-based nutrition for physicians and other health professionals who want to apply this in their practice, is a stepping stone to pursue a PhD, trains health educators who want to promote health and prevent lifestyle diseases, and prepare those that want to work in programs on environmental sustainability.

This is not a coordinated program. It is for dietitians that are seeking a graduate nutrition degree focused on plant-based nutrition. The School of Public Health offers a coordinated Master’s program in public health nutrition.

The Loma Linda University School of Public Health prepares its students for rewarding public health careers in an increasingly changing health care system. We offer 12 public health degree programs at the masters and doctoral levels. The School of Public Health also offers MPH and DrPH degrees online.

We create learning experiences for each generation. We translate scientific discovery into action, improve health, spread hope, and promote our neighbourhood's wholeness to yours.

We flourish under a mentality of continuous creativity and exploration of thought. We insist that to make public health successful, and we must work across disciplines. Responsible innovation requires flexibility and evaluation. It ensures growth and determines the impact of new ideas. We are willing to take calculated risks and continue moving our best ideas forward. At every level of our operation, we are looking to improve how our students register for classes to define new study areas. Indeed, our innovation is one way we remain relevant.
