Hello Josephine,
To become a quality control officer, you should pursue M.Sc in food science and nutrition. There are too many career options available because it is a growing career sector.
You can also try to become a research fellow or lecturer. As a food scientist, you can get a chance to develop products, which people eat and drink every day. For this, you have to prepare for CSIR NET exam, which is a national level eligibility test to determine the eligibility for Junior Research Fellowship or an Assistant Professorship.
Best of luck.
