PGIMER Chandigarh Admissions: B.Sc Nursing

About the PGIMER Chandigarh

The Government of India, Ministry of Health had set up a committee known as the “HEALTH SURVEY AND PLANNING COMMITTEE” on 12th June, 1959 to undertake the review of the development that had taken place since the publication of the report of HEALTH SURVEY AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE (BHORE COMMITTEE) in 1946 with a view to formulate further health programme for the country in the third and subsequent five year plan periods. This committee recommended the setting up of six Postgraduate Medical Institutions in the country, one each at Kolkata, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Lucknow and Chandigarh to meet the increasing demand of teachers for the rapidly expanding Medical Colleges specialist services for hospitals, and need of the armed

forces.

The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research was conceived and planned in 1960 to create in Chandigarh “ISLAND OF EXCELLENCE” providing physical and intellectual milieu for young scientists working in multiple disciplines of medicine, to
advance the frontiers of knowledge, render humane service to sick and suffering and to train medical, nursing and paramedical manpower. The Institute was established in 1962 under the erstwhile state of Punjab. It was declared as an Institute of National importance by an Act of Parliament (Act 51 of 1966) w.e.f. 1st April, 1967. The College of Nursing was established in 1964 in Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER), Chandigarh with an aim to bring primary health services within the reach of all individuals. From 2003 onwards College of Nursing, PGI, Chandigarh stands upgraded and renamed as National Institute of Nursing Education, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research, Chandigarh. Earlier the Nursing Institute was offering graduate and postgraduate degree courses in nursing under Panjab University. According to Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research, Chandigarh Amendment Act-2008 (No. 3 of 2008), degrees are now awarded by this Institute. The Nursing Institute has been preparing clinical practitioners, nursing administrators and educators to shoulder responsible positions and facilitate better education with added thrust to nursing research and short term courses in specialties of nursing.
