Birat Medial College (BMC) is the newest medical school in Nepal. Established in 2014 as an extended program of Kathmandu University, BMC is now gearing up for its fifth intake. Each year 75 national and international students join us to pursue their life-long passion and goals.
Even though BMC is relatively new, its history in the context of Nepal has been one of significance. Birat Medical College and Teaching Hospital as we are now known as began with a single bedded clinic in 1991. Dr Gyanendra Man Sing Karki, our chairman, has always been a visionary leader and a patriot of Nepal. Completing his MD with a specialty in Obstetrics and Oncological
Gynecology from former USSR, Dr. Karki always knew he wanted to contribute to the healthcare of Nepal. Even with vast opportunities presented to him around the world, he knew his dedication for his own people outweighed any materialistic gains.Dr. Karki has always believed than Nepal is more than just the capital and should be developed in its entirety, rather than centralising where gains are the greatest. It is with this belief for the need to decentralize healthcare that Dr. Karki in 1993 moved to Biratnagar, a southeastern city of Nepal, where he started his private practice. Being able to provide a super-specialty service to a much needed community helped a lot of people in need. What started as a single-bedded clinic turned into a 25-bedded Birat Nursing Home by 1994. Being one of the first private hospitals outside of the city, numerous patients not only benefitted from not having to travel to India or Kathmandu, but our center was able to provide healthcare services for neighboring Indian patients as well.
By year 2000, Birat Nursing Home managed to grow into 50-bedded tertiary care hospital on its own premises where it still stands. It was at this center that Birat hospital has managed to make significant contribution to our people and the country as whole. We became pioneers of utilizing many technological advances, services and techniques that first entered Nepal and are still recognized as the only advanced laparoscopic gynecological surgery center in Nepal.
By year 2004, we understood the need for passing on our vastly accumulated knowledge to the next generation. It was with this vision in mind that we first entered our academic mission by establishing Birat Health College (BHC), a nursing school. Today, Birat Health College has over 900 students enrolled in 11 separate heath allied disciplines. BHC has not only produced thousands of much required health workforce for Nepal but also helped Birat Nursing Home sustain its health workforce requirement and quality.
By year 2011, we were ready to expand on our health care academic mission. It was in this year that we took the Letter of Intent (LOI) to establish a new medical school in Nepal. After being 3 years in the pipeline of constant construction and lobbying, BMC came into existence as the newest medical school in August, 2014 and by November, 2014 we had our first batch of 75 students that are still studying with us. Since then BMC has never stopped expanding neither its health care services nor its academic facilities. By 2015, we established a new stand-alone community-oriented teaching hospital that as of 2018 is a comprehensive 350-bedded tertiary care hospital. Combined we see thousands of patients each day and are well geared towards becoming a prominent medical institute of the future.
Our Mission
Birat Medical College strives to improve health care in Eastern Nepal, our nation, and the world through excellence and consistently superior leadership in education, clinical care, discovery, and service.
To achieve this mission we aspire to the following goals:
⦁ To develop humanistic, skilled, intellectually disciplined, and authoritative medical professionals who are committed to the highest ideals and standards of the profession and who model an exceptional standard of care for those they treat, lead, and serve.
⦁ To educate and inspire the next generation of leaders in health care, biomedical sciences, health services research, and academic medicine to seek, provide and sustain unparalleled achievements in service, teaching, and research.
⦁ To provide comprehensive, patient-cantered, culturally sensitive, compassionate, and innovative health care of the highest quality to all.
⦁ To promote sustained, robust professional and personal growth, productivity, accountability, integrity, and synergistic collaboration of faculty, students and staffs.
Our Vision
Birat Medical College will aspire to be nation’s premier 21st century college of medicine.
BMC will be a national leader in education, research, and patient care recognized for supporting and empowering its students and faculty to realize their passion for discovery, healing, health and life, and for its ability to create partnership to transform medical education, health care and services.
Overall, we share a common vision to work as a team shaping the future of medicine by creating, disseminating and applying new knowledge and by personalizing health care to meet the needs of each individual and community as a whole.
Our Value
Respect
We respect our colleagues, our students and our communities. We treat others and their ideas in a manner that conveys respect as we discuss our differences. We teach our students to respect their patients, other members of the healthcare team and their colleagues by modelling that behaviour.
Community Health
We are committed to playing a role in improving the health status of the community and making a contribution to the community. We involve students, faculty and staff in creating projects and awareness of community health and work with other organizations who strive for the same goal.
Social Responsibility
Our students, faculty and staff are part of a community, region, state and world. We encourage all to get involved with their neighborhood and communities, contribute to its well-being and be active volunteers in bettering life. Our educational focus emphasizes service to the community.
Innovation
Innovation is the heart of our school. We are open to new ideas from faculty, students, staff and others. We seek out new ideas and evaluate them with open minds in order to continue to improve the efficiency of health care and the health system.
Stewardship
We have been entrusted with a great responsibility – the education of the next generation of physicians. This mandates that we live our values and focus on our mission to serve through education, research, clinical care and community service.
Communication
We want to instil in our students an understanding that good communication is a large part of being a good doctor. We will work to develop communication skills in students. We will also remember that many people support the college from throughout the region and work to not only communicate our progress but to listen to their feedback and hopes for the college. We will communicate also with our students, faculty, other members of the healthcare team and staff both by listening to ideas and share our plans.

KU ACCREDITED
Birat Medical College (BMC) was awarded an extension program by The Kathmandu University since August 2014. This fully accredited college currently runs an MBBS program as an extension of Kathmandu University School of Medical Science (KUSMS). Finance and Operation of BMC is independent but is directly under the supervision of KU in terms of Academics, Examination and Teaching Calendar.
Why choose BMC and Medicine at BMC?
Birat Medical College (BMC), Kathmandu University holds a premier position within the Nepal’s Medical environment. Students become part of our extensive community of scholars, clinicians and stakeholders, who provide a world class medical education. Here are some of the reasons to choose Medicine at BMC.
Learn from the best
BMC has a commitment to the excellence that underpins all of the campus’s activities, particularly teaching and research. We attract faculty of international standing, many of whom have extensively worked in the numerous research centres and esteemed universities, nationally and internationally. These academic leaders, many of whom with doctoral qualifications, pass on their expert knowledge to students, who then gain a respected qualification and skills required in today’s challenging medical environment.
Commitment to teaching
We deliver high quality teaching to our diverse body of students across all units. Our teaching staff are not only expert in their field but the majority of them also practise in their area of expertise, providing a strong link between theory and practice. Our teaching:
⦁ Is responsive to the need of both local and interna
tional students, building on the experiences our students bring to their learning.
⦁ Promotes high level of interaction and collaboration through innovative delivery methods, including online learning resources.
⦁ Undergoes continual improvement, through the evaluative processes at university, faculty and college levels.
⦁ Is relevant to the workplace, with many opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge to practice, well before the internship practices kick in.
The location advantage
A strong public- private healthcare system, a large pool of skilled labour and favourable business environment means that Biratnagar has become one of the most popular destination for medical services in Nepal. Central to this development has been a concerted push by the government to establish Biratnagar into a Metropolitan City and develop it as a regional hub for medical tourism, with a focus on providing world-class facilities and highly trained healthcare workers. Strong links with industry and excellent research capacity have also helped turn Biratnagar into a leading centre for referrals from different sections of Nepal, as well as some parts of India.
We thus serve a diverse local community where you will develop your clinical skills and knowledge. Our location in the south-east of Nepal will help enhance your experience. Moreover, Biratnagar offers you many exciting opportunities to develop an understanding of health and the treatment of disease in a global and international context. Many curricular and extra-curricular developments are underway to support learning in this area.
A highly supportive educational environment
The comparatively small size of the school (around 100 in each year group) allows staff to get to know students individually and this encourages a friendly atmosphere. You will be allocated a mentor who will be concerned with your personal welfare and academic development as we aim to provide a supportive environment in which you can thrive.
