Hello Bollu VidyaSri,

Yes you can very well join food science courses if you have interest and liking towards learning about the components of food, nutrition and of course research. It is a multi-disciplinary field which involves chemistry,nutrition science, biochemistry,microbiology and engineering . You will learn about flavor chemistry,product development, food processing and quality testing . After studies you can go as researcher, nutrition expert or therapist, quality assurance manager etc upon completion of further studies ,noted that just a bachelors will not be enough to land you in a good position. If you are more technically and business inclined you may take up food technology course to get into food processing industry where you will deal with processing , packaging ,sales,marketing ,supply chain  and more . This field has wider scope in terms of immediate job opportunities. Some top food companies you may enter are :

Nestle India Ltd ,Parle Agro Pvt Ltd ,Britannia Industries Ltd ,PepsiCo and so on.

Do more research on this industry in terms of work profile, future score etc and decide based on your interests.
