Hey,

Yes, a person holding a B.Sc. Nursing degree can enrol in the Master of Public Health (MPH) program at Institutes of National Importance in India. Nursing is regarded as a clinical science and hence the eligibility criteria for public health studies are met. For instance, the MPH department of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), the National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW), and the National Institute of Public Health Training and Research (NIPHTR) welcome applicants with nursing qualifications. Such programs are traversing different disciplines and concentrate on such subjects as epidemiology, health policy, community health, and public health management.

Mostly, the minimum passing marks in the last degree is set to 55%, and some institutes may have written tests followed by interviews for the final selection. With your B.Sc. Nursing degree, you have clinical experience, which is very much in line with the objectives of public health education.

Hope it helps!!!
