Hello Aspirant,
Depending on the eligibility criteria of the institution you’re looking to apply to, you might be allowed to apply for a PG Diploma in Dialysis Technology
After studying BSc in Applied Nutrition and Public Health education. Colleges often look for a background in life sciences, allied health sciences or biological/health-related fields in their applicants, all of which is generally covered in your course. In saying that eligibility differs from institute to institute so it's a good idea to:
- Contact the college/university offering the course you're interested in.
- Make sure you have at the very least earned 50% or 60% marks in your undergrad as many institutes use that as their eligibility cutoff.
If your degree includes biological sciences or any health related courses/options then your chances are increasing.
Most colleges require a B.Sc. in Dialysis Technology, Medical Laboratory Technology, Nursing, or Allied Health Sciences. Some institutes do accept B.Sc. in related life sciences or health sciences (like Applied Nutrition & Public Health) — but only if their curriculum includes sufficient medical/biological subjects.
If your degree is accepted, the minimum marks needed are usually 50–55% aggregate.
If not directly eligible, you might have to do a bridge course or opt for a certificate course in dialysis before entering a PG diploma program.
