B.Sc. in Nursing at UPUMS

UPUMS, Uttar Pradesh - Other, Uttar Pradesh, offers B.Sc. in Nursing as a 4-year undergraduate degree. There are 40 seats in each batch.

Expect to spend most of your time on anatomy, physiology, nursing care and community health, with long clinical postings.

UPUMS is a other institute, founded in 2016. This page brings together what is on record for this course at UPUMS — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Sc programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means anatomy, physiology, nursing care and community health, with long clinical postings. Typical first jobs: staff nurse in hospitals and community health roles. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask UPUMS for the current semester-wise plan.

UPUMS has not published a fee for B.Sc. in Nursing on our record yet. When you ask, ask for the total across all 4 years — not just the first-year figure — and whether hostel and exam fees are included.

To get into B.Sc. in Nursing, you usually need Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology. The minimum marks on record at UPUMS are: X: 0.0, XII: 45.0, Graduation: 0.0.

In most years, admission follows these steps:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above and register for the entrance exam in time.
2. Take state nursing entrance exams and keep your scorecard.
3. Apply to UPUMS on its website (www.upums.ac.in) or through the enquiry form on this page, and take part in counselling if a state or central body runs it.
4. Once you are offered a seat, verify your documents (marksheets, ID, category certificate if any) and pay the admission fee to confirm it.

UPUMS runs 3 B.Sc specialisations in all. If this one is not quite right, compare it with:

• B.Sc. in Nursing
• Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

Ask yourself — and the college — these questions first:

• Are you genuinely interested in anatomy? You will spend 4 years on it.
• What will the full course cost, including hostel and living costs?
• What do recent graduates of this course actually go on to do?
• How does UPUMS compare with other colleges offering B.Sc in and around Uttar Pradesh - Other?
