Regular B.Sc Nursing is a 4-year undergraduate program open to 10+2 science graduates. P.B.B.Sc is shorter and more focused on clinical and academic advancement for working nurses, whereas regular B.Sc covers foundational nursing education from the undergraduate level.

Ans. The Post Basic B.Sc Nursing degree from AINE is awarded by SNDT Women’s University, Mumbai, a NAAC 5-star accredited women’s university.

Ans. Completing the Post Basic B.Sc Nursing degree enables GNM-registered nurses to qualify for degree-level nursing posts in government hospitals, including Senior Staff Nurse and Nursing Superintendent positions that require a B.Sc degree. It also opens pathways to M.Sc Nursing programs and AIIMS nursing officer recruitment, which mandate a B.Sc Nursing degree as a minimum qualification.

Ans. Yes, candidates from outside Assam who hold a valid GNM diploma from an INC-recognised institution and are registered as RN/RM with any State Nursing Council in India can apply for AINE’s Post Basic B.Sc Nursing program.
