Hi
After 12th to become a nutritionist, a student can pursue B.Sc. in Nutrition and Dietetics followed by M.Sc. Nutrition and Dietetics. M.Sc Nutrition and Dietetics has four major specialized fields of nutrition– Clinical Nutrition, Public Health Nutrition, Food Science and Technology, and Sports Nutrition.
To pursue the field of nutrition and dietetics, it is necessary to pass the 12th examination for a science subject. For admission in this course, it is necessary to have at least 50 per cent marks in 12th. The work of a dietician is to assess the nutritional problems of the patient.
