Eligibility
NPCC at SRK University is the university’s most specialized nursing qualification, focused entirely on critical care — training nurses to independently manage ICU patients, ventilator support, and emergency interventions under a nurse practitioner scope of practice. Running since 2018 at RKDF College of Nursing, it’s the newest addition to SRK’s nursing programme lineup, reflecting rising demand for critical care specialists across Madhya Pradesh’s expanding hospital ICU capacity.
With only 10 seats, NPCC runs as SRK’s smallest and most intensive nursing cohort, combining classroom instruction with hands-on ICU clinical postings at attached hospital facilities. The programme suits registered nurses who already have B.Sc. Nursing-level qualifications and want to move into high-acuity critical care roles rather than general ward nursing.
Graduates are trained to function with greater clinical autonomy in ICU settings than a general staff nurse role typically allows.
