The purpose of this study is to prove the propriety of prolongation in educational term of department of food and nutrition at junior college in Korea in order to improve the quality of dietitian by giving substantial education. The prolongation of educational term from two to three years is necessary to cultivate a more excellent dietitian because of the following three reasons. First, the freshmen in junior colleges are poor in basic scholastic ability which is needed for the study of nutrition science. Second, many new subjects which will support the new rolles of dietitian, in acordance with social changes, should be supplemented in curriculum. Third, the subject of spot-practice for dietitian should be established as a regular course in curriculum.
