Master of Public Health or Master of Science?

Lan T asked:


I was considering to become a registered Dietitian (RD) . I was told to have a Master of Science degree and then complete the Didactic Program for Dietetics (DPD). However, I am also interested in Master of Public Health. Is it a requirement that to get into the DPD program, one has to have a MS degree? Or can it also be with a MPH degree?
Also, what is better: MPH or RD with an MS?
What kind of jobs does each do?
I am uncertain in what direction I should head toward. If anyone who is in one of the mentioned fields or knows about them, please let me know. Appreciate it!
Thanks a lot.

    Currently to become a RD you need to have a bachelors degree and go either through a coordinated program or an internship.
