National Tainan Junior College of Nursing

Introduction

National Tainan Junior College of Nursing (NTIN) was founded in June 1952. The college currently consists of three departments: Nursing, Applied Cosmetology, and Senior Citizen Services. In addition to its team of excellent and qualified faculty members, the college provides outstanding facilities, high-quality teaching equipment, and a comprehensive e-learning environment for students. Guided by its motto, “Honesty, Charity, Diligence, and Responsibility,” the college has nurtured numerous talented students who have contributed to society for decades. Situated in the heart of the culturally rich ancient capital, approximately 700 meters from Tainan Railway Station, the college is easily accessible by public transportation. Its central location offers students convenient access to the city’s traditional art and cultural experiences.

 

*Remarks: The English name of our school has been amended as NTJCN since 2013, but because of the habit of using NTIN in previous years, the abbreviation of NTIN still continue to be used.
