Hi Roshni, the answer will depend on where you want to settle, your skills and qualification. Nursing and medical fields are highly respected fields abroad. In countries like Canada, Australia, etc. salary package is quite good for nurses. Job opportunities may range from private and public sector hospitals, orphanages, armed forces, administrative roles in medical schools and hospitals, teaching, etc. I would suggest you to check job portals of various foreign countries and check for positions and openings.

Nursing is generally considered to be a professional course meant for science stream (Biology group) students. But there are nursing courses available in India, which can be pursued after completing 12th arts/commerce stream schooling too. After completing 12th with arts, you can go for ANM (Auxiliary Nursing and Midwifery) and GNM (General Nursing and Midwifery) Diploma courses.There exist many institutes in India (recognised by the Indian Nursing Council), which accept arts/commerce stream students to pursue the above mentioned courses.
