    Hi Radika,
    Yes, it would be useful but in TNOU, you'll be learning about basics of it. You can try in Madras University or some other college in Chennai to expertise so that you can become what you want to.
    All the best.

    No, since the BSc Nutrition and Dietetics eligibility includes a PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) combination in 12th grade which is mandatory for BSc Nutrition and Dietetics.

    However, some universities or colleges might offer postgraduate diploma courses or certification programs in Nutrition and Dietetics that do not strictly require a PCB background.
