(Nantou, April 30, Central News Agency reporter Cheng Wei-chen) To cultivate cross-disciplinary talents from non-medical and nursing backgrounds, National Chi Nan University has established a post-baccalaureate nursing program for the 2026 academic year, allowing individuals to complete professional nurse training and connect with employment within three years. This not only injects new blood into the medical system but also provides new options for those seeking career changes.
The university stated that to support students' determination to change careers, the school collaborates with large teaching hospitals to provide scholarships and guaranteed employment opportunities, realizing an integrated path of learning, internship, and employment. Registration for the post-baccalaureate nursing program is open from now until June 10 for working professionals or recent graduates with a bachelor's degree.
The university mentioned that unlike traditional four-year nursing education, the National Chi Nan University's post-baccalaureate nursing program is tailored for career changers who already possess a bachelor's degree. In the three-year curriculum, the first two years focus on professional nursing courses, encouraging students to participate in international exchanges and overseas learning, while the third year is fully dedicated to internships in teaching hospitals.
National Chi Nan University President Wu Tung-hsing stated today via a press release that as Taiwan enters a super-aging society, sufficient nursing talent directly relates to the nation's medical quality and the stability of the long-term care system. The establishment of the post-baccalaureate nursing program by National Chi Nan University not only fills the talent gap in the medical industry but also hopes to leverage the advantages of a comprehensive university. If talents from different backgrounds such as business management, humanities, and engineering combine with nursing expertise, it will inject more innovative thinking into smart healthcare and precision care.
National Chi Nan University stated that modern nursing professionalism has transformed from traditional care service models into the core of the "Greater Health" industry, combining smart technology, psychological counseling, and community health. Therefore, the curriculum design of the department specifically integrates AI health technology to cultivate elite nurses with technological literacy, enabling graduates to serve in hospitals and institutions, and also become key professionals in the future health industry.
