Hello,

There is no big problem. You can do MSc Nutrition and Dietetics after BSc Medical Microbiology. Both fields are related to health and life sciences.

You may need to learn some basics of nutrition in the beginning, but with interest and effort, you can manage it. For jobs, many hospitals, clinics, fitness centres, and food industries hire nutritionists and dietitians.

Your microbiology background can even help in food safety, research, and clinical nutrition. Getting a job will depend on your skills, internship experience, and how well you perform, not just your BSc subject.

Hope it helps !

Hey! There is no big problem if you take M.Sc. Nutrition and Dietetics after completing B.Sc. Medical Microbiology. Both are health-related fields, so the transition is possible. You may need to put some extra effort in the beginning to cover the basics of nutrition since your background is more in microbiology, but it won’t stop you from pursuing the course. For jobs, you can work in hospitals, clinics, research labs, food industries, or as a diet consultant, so career opportunities are available.

There’s generally no problem pursuing MSc Nutrition and Dietetics after a BSc in Medical Microbiology. Many universities allow graduates from life sciences, microbiology, or related fields to apply. Just make sure you meet the specific eligibility criteria of the university (some may prefer a background in nutrition, biochemistry, or home science). Your microbiology background can actually give you an added advantage in research and clinical nutrition.
