Hey,
The Bachelors degree in food sciences and technology includes the scientific principles and application in food manufacturing and looking out for efficient  ways to preserve food materials.It is a vast field in itself.
If you want to go for higher studies then you must be sure of what you actually want to pursue through any higher education.If you are considering a career in corporates then go for MBA provided you are fulfilling the eligibility criteria.
If you want to go in the field of academics,then you can pursue  B.Ed along with your M.Sc for teaching in schools or NET if you want to be a lecturer.
You can go for Masters in the following fields of Science:
M.Sc in Food Sciences and Technology
M.Sc in Food Nutrition
M.Sc in Food Processing Technology
M.Sc in Food Biotechnology
M.Sc in Food Technology
M.Sc in Food,Nutrition and Dietetics
M.Sc in Microbial and Food Technology

There are some short term courses as well:
Advanced Diploma Course in Food Science and Quality Control
Certificate Course in Food Science & Quality Control
Certificate course in Food Technology
Certificate Courses in Food Technology and Processing
Diploma Course in Food Science and Quality Control

Here is the list of entrance tests for Masters in Food Sciences and Technology:
