If you pursue CUET PG in Food Science and Technology, you’ll study food processing, safety, and quality control. However, this course doesn’t directly qualify you to become a nutritionist. To become a certified nutritionist, it’s better to do a PG in Nutrition & Dietetics or Food & Nutrition. These programs focus on human health, diet planning, and clinical nutrition. You can shift later, but it may require additional qualifications.

Yes, if you pursue CUET PG in Food Science and Technology, you can move toward a career as a nutritionist, but it may not be the most direct route. Food Science focuses more on food processing, safety, and technology, while nutritionist/dietitian roles usually require a degree or PG in Nutrition, Dietetics, or Clinical Nutrition. With Food Science, you can still work in food quality, R&D, or industry-based nutrition roles, but for clinical or hospital practice as a licensed nutritionist, you may need additional qualifications in Nutrition/Dietetics.
