The Far Eastern University – Institute of Nursing, or simply IN, is an academic institute for nurse education of the Far Eastern University. It is regarded as one of the top-performing nursing schools in the Philippines in terms of Philippine Nurse Licensure Examination performance and employment in various nursing settings. IN offers programs leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing and a Master of Arts degree in Nursing.

At present, the Institute is accredited LEVEL III by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges, and Universities (PAASCU).

The Institute of Nursing's Virtual Integrated Nursing Education Simulation (VINES) Laboratory was the first nursing virtual laboratory in the Philippines and the second in Asia.[2]

Brief history

[edit]

In 1955, three years after the establishment of the Institute of Medicine, it started as the School of Nursing. In its initial run, it only offered a non-degree Graduate of Nursing diploma. Started with a low population of enrollees, the School of Nursing has faced many challenges but worked its way up by continually enhancing its curriculum, re-caliberating its faculty, and establishing linkages with distinguished institutions. It eventually elevated as the Institute of Nursing in 1959.

In 1961, IN began offering the baccalaureate program leading to Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
