Hello student,

The basic eligibility criteria for getting admission in masters in food and nutrition is that the candidate must have a bachelor's degree in food science or any equivalent discipline with minimum of required marks in the qualifying examination.

So, concluding that eligibility criteria is a graduation that can be in nutrition/dietetics/food science/food technology.

However, few colleges or institution may have their specific eligibility criteria.

Thanks.
