    To become a dietician or nutritionist, you must complete a postgraduate programme in nutrition and dietetics. You have the option of pursuing a Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Nutrition or a M.Sc. In Nutrition and Dietetics. Some institutions, including Jamia Humdard, provide B.Sc. Graduates with an Advanced Diploma in Dietetics and Therapeutic Nutrition (ADDTN).
