Hello aspirant,

After earning a B.Sc. in nursing, you can pursue an M.Sc. in nutrition.  A appropriate bachelor's degree in nutrition, food science, or related health sciences is necessary for postgraduate courses (MSc in Dietetics & Nutrition).  Merit-based admissions, university-specific assessments, or entrance exams like NEET PG may be used.

Thank you

Hope this information helps you

Hello student!

Yes absolutely, you can! If you’ve completed BSc Nursing in 2025, you’re definitely eligible to apply for MSc in Nutrition and Dietetics in many colleges. Since you already have a strong background in healthcare and human physiology from nursing, it actually gives you an advantage in understanding the core subjects in nutrition too.

Some universities might ask for specific subjects in your undergrad like biology or related life sciences — which nursing already covers. I’d suggest checking the eligibility criteria of a few universities just to be sure, but in general, yes, it’s totally possible and a smart shift if you’re interested in clinical nutrition, public health, or wellness.
