When we see which course is emerging, then the answer is Food and Nutrition because schools which are in the private domain are developing their scope by including Self Management, Food-Related segments of teaching-learning. Residential Schools have great scope for this. Psychology is also in great demand because school of the same category mentioned above are hiring Counsellors who have eligibility. I shall suggest that you should go with your interest. School Counsellor is more common and you can also do UGC NET for Higher Education teaching.

Hi Sanskriti! There are no such subjects or stream required for pursuing the diploma. It only needs the candidate to be 12th passed from a recognized board.

The eligibility criteria may vary from institute to institute. You would be eligible to apply with 58% marks in some college but you need to justify the gap in the education.

You will get a better answer to this once you enroll for the course and get to know the syllabus. At this stage no one would be able to tell about the same.
The only option you have is to visit the institute and have a word with admission counselors or the course faculty.

Hi,
Yes, you are eligible and it is indeed a good choice. More than food technology, try for food biotechnology in PG.
Food biotechnology will channelise your interest for research.
There are many central universities offering such courses, Tezpur University is one of them.
Happy learning. Best of luck.
