College of Nursing Sciences

College of Nursing Sciences (ICNS) started as one of the academic departments of the Inaya Medical Colleges (IMC) in 2011. Due to the great demand for qualified nurses in the Kingdom, IMC transformed it in 2022 from a department into a college with four departments: the department of medical-surgical nursing, the department of community health and psychiatric nursing, the department of maternity and child nursing, and the department of nursing administration and education. The college offers a bachelor degree in nursing for students who successfully finish a five-year program, including the internship period. ICNS will continue seeking high standards of quality in education through obtaining program accreditation from the Education and Training Evaluation Commission (NCAAA), AHPGS and launching postgraduate programs.
