Bachelor of Science [B.Sc] (Nursing)

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing programme at SRM Institute of Science and Technology in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, prepares students for professional nursing practice across hospital and community health settings. The curriculum combines foundational health sciences, including anatomy, physiology, microbiology and pharmacology, with nursing-specific subjects such as fundamentals of nursing, medical-surgical nursing, community health nursing, paediatric and obstetric nursing, and mental health nursing. Clinical postings in hospital wards and community health settings run alongside classroom teaching throughout the programme, giving students supervised, hands-on experience in patient care, medication administration and health education well before graduation. The course suits students who want a direct, patient-facing healthcare career and are comfortable with the physical and emotional demands of bedside and community nursing. Training in a hospital setting in Chennai gives students exposure to a wide patient base during their clinical postings. On graduating and registering with the relevant nursing council, students can work as staff nurses in hospitals, community health roles, or specialised nursing units, and can pursue further study through postgraduate nursing programmes. Admission runs against a sanctioned intake fixed by the institute, with the category-wise seat matrix published by the admitting authority for each session and reissued every year, so the current notification is the one to follow.
