About Bishop Benziger College of Nursing

Bishop Benziger College of Nursing is a nursing college in Kollam, Kerala, established in 2004. Bishop Benziger College of Nursing is privately managed and self-financing. It is affiliated to Kerala University of Health Sciences. Its programmes are approved by the Indian Nursing Council. Bishop Benziger College of Nursing offers 3 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 5 at postgraduate level. They are B.Sc. Nursing, M.Sc. Nursing and Ph.D. Nursing. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 70 seats. Verified against the college's current official website. The college is an associate institution attached to Bishop Benziger Hospital, affiliated to KUHS, and recognized by INC and KNMC. The parent hospital page states 600 beds and NABH Safe-I accreditation; those figures are attributed only to the hospital. Website pages also list a separate Benziger School of Nursing under the same hospital umbrella; it is not included as this college. The faculty row is department-specific (Medical Surgical Nursing), not a whole-college total. No official current 2026-27 figures were found for attendance minimum, exam pattern, whole-college faculty total, or principal qualification. Private, self-financing Christian minority institution established by the Latin Catholic Diocese of Quilon. The college website states affiliation to KUHS and recognition by INC and KNMC. The 2024-25 INC report opened did not contain this college; the latest opened specific INC B.Sc. list found it suitable for 2023-24 with intake 60. The parent hospital’s 600-bed figure is not a college campus fact.
