How does the syllabus differ between clinical nutrition and food Science in BSc Nutrition and Dietetics?

<p dir="ltr">In the &lt;a href="https://www.shiksha.com/medicine-health-sciences/bsc-dietetics-and-nutrition-chp"&gt;BSc Nutrition and Dietetics course&lt;/a&gt;, both clinical nutrition and food Science are key components. However, they differ in focus—while clinical nutrition is more health and patient-centric, food Science deals with food production, safety, and processing techniques.</p><p dir="ltr">Here's a quick comparison:</p><div dir="ltr" align="left"><table style="height: 228.625px; width: 97.5056%;"><colgroup><col style="width: 18.6857%;" width="118"><col style="width: 36.1099%;" width="224"><col style="width: 45.1662%;" width="282"></colgroup><tbody><tr style="height: 10px;"><th style="height: 10px;"><p dir="ltr">Aspect</p></th><th style="height: 10px;"><p dir="ltr">Clinical Nutrition</p></th><th style="height: 10px;"><p dir="ltr">Food Science</p></th></tr><tr style="height: 72.875px;"><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Focus</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Diet therapy, disease-specific nutrition</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Food chemistry, preservation, processing</p></td></tr><tr style="height: 72.875px;"><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Application</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Hospitals, clinics, therapeutic diets</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Food industry, product development, quality control</p></td></tr><tr style="height: 72.875px;"><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Subjects Covered</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Human physiology, therapeutic nutrition</p></td><td style="height: 72.875px;"><p dir="ltr">Food microbiology, food technology, packaging</p></td></tr></tbody></table></div>
