Hello dear student,

yes sure food technology is a branch of science that deals with the techniques involved in production ,processing, preservation, and packaging labelling ,quality management ,quality control ,distribution of food products. this field also involves techniques and processes that used to transform raw material into food. as far as the scope of this subject is concerned as far as the job is concerned after doing this particular course so you have a wide range of the job opportunities in food processing industries, research laboratories, hotels, soft drink factories, wine and beer production factories, quality control, various food product factories, manufacturing industries and distilleries.

While as far as  the nutrition course is concerned it comes under food technology only separately doing nutrition and technology may leads you to become a dietitian but if you do food technology that can also solve the purpose.

I hope this information is helpful for you

Thank you
