Rationale, Justifications, and Assurances (Part I) 1. _X Course is required for the major(s) of BS in Family and Consumer Sciences: Dietetics Option Course is required for the minor(s) of Course is required for the certificate program(s) of Course is used as an elective 2. Rationale for proposal: Recently, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics developed a standardized method of charting nutritional information within the electronic medical record called the Nutrition Care Process. The Nutrition Care Process includes nutrition assessment, diagnosis, intervention (counseling and motivational interviewing), and monitoring/ evaluation of progress. The addition of this course will provide greater detail to this process and will free up several weeks in the Nutrition Therapy (FCS 4751) course for deeper thinking into the disease processes and medical nutrition therapy. Overall, the addition of this course will add two more hours to the degree requirement. 3. Justifications for (answer N/A if not applicable) Similarity to other courses: The content of this course is introduced briefly in several undergraduate nutrition courses; however, the depth as presented in this course isn t presented in any other course. Information currently presented in the Profession of Dietetics course (FCS 4150) will be added into this course and is also presented at a basic level in FCS 2500, so the deletion of FCS 4150 is recommended. Prerequisites: FCS 2100 or its equivalent. A foundational knowledge of human nutrition is necessary for this course.
