In its endeavor of fulfilling the country’s need of human resources for health and research undertakings,
MMC has set the following overall institutional objectives:
The establishment of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH) in 2039 BS (1983 AD) near to MMC premises, made the fact very clear that imparting medical education does require its own teaching hospital for facilitating teaching-learning activities effectively. With the establishment of TUTH, MMC acquired full status of the first medical school in Nepal. Since then, MMC not only became responsible for offering healthcare education but also started to provide tertiary healthcare to all those coming to TUTH. The faculties of MMC since then have been playing a dual role – the first one is that of a healthcare science educator and the second one of a healthcare service provider.
