Hello Aspirant,
Since food science and nutrition or basically food engineering is an upcoming stream in the field of engineering, the openings aren't instant like those of other engineering streams like CS or mechanical, E&Tc. If you do it from a reputable college of stream specialized college and the campus placements are strong, then you can get an annual package of 2.5lakh to 5 lakh. 5 and more can be expected only from top colleges and top companies. Else average of 3.5LPA for an undergraduate.
To get a higher package you may increase your work experience duration or get a masters degree.
Ill suggest first complete your masters and then go for a job. Deep knowledge of the subject is a must.
Good luck!
