About Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College & Hospital

Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College & Hospital was established as part of the Tairunnessa Memorial Medical Centre Limited. The institution was founded by Late Mohammad Shamsul Haque, who decided to establish a medical college to contribute to medical education and healthcare in Bangladesh. The college was named after his mother, Late Tairunnessa.

The college is situated at Konia, near Board Bazar in Gazipur, along the Dhaka–Mymensingh Highway. The official college website describes the campus as being approximately 9 km from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport and just outside Dhaka.

The institution combines:

• Medical education
• Undergraduate MBBS training
• Hospital-based clinical education
• Research
• Patient care
• Student accommodation
• Library and e-learning facilities
• Medical skills training
• Extracurricular activities

The college's stated educational objective is to develop students' knowledge, skills and professional attitudes so that they can address community health problems and continue with further medical training and studies.

University Affiliation & Medical Education

Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College offers a 5-year MBBS course approved under the Bangladesh medical education system and leading to an MBBS degree of the University of Dhaka. The college states that its academic session runs from July to June, while its first academic session began in June 2002.

The Bangladesh Medical & Dental Council (BM&DC) lists Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College among medical colleges affiliated with the University of Dhaka. BM&DC's published listing gives its location as Konia (Targach), Board Bazar, Gazipur.

Current regulatory data note

The DGME public institutional record currently displays older renewal fields as pending, including the BM&DC renewal field through 2016–17. Because this is government database information that appears to contain historical fields, it should not be interpreted alone as evidence that current admission is suspended. The college is currently publishing academic, admission and 2026–27 foreign-student information on its official website.

MBBS Course at Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College

Academic Infrastructure

According to the current DGME institutional record, Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College has:

The campus itself includes classrooms, seminar facilities, a dissection hall, laboratories, museum, library, student common rooms and a snack shop.

Library & Digital Learning

TMMCH maintains a dedicated medical library.

The college's current library page describes a collection of textbooks, reference materials and medical journals. The library is located on the 5th floor of the college building and has an initial collection of approximately 6,500 books and monographs, according to the college's own library page.

The library provides:

• Textbooks
• Reference books
• Medical journals
• Computer access
• Internet access
• Electronic information resources
• Open-stack access
• MEDLINE resources
• POPLINE resources
• Current Awareness Services
• Selective Dissemination of Information

The college also maintains an e-library.

Data difference worth noting

The DGME institutional record currently lists 4,223 books and 150 library seats, whereas the college's own library page refers to an initial collection of 6,500 books and monographs. Because the two official sources give different book figures, the safest website wording is to avoid presenting either number as the definitive current total.

Computer & Internet Facilities

The college provides computer facilities for students and faculty.

Its official computer-access page states that:

• Students can access computers in the computer laboratory and library.
• Computer labs provide internet access.
• Printing facilities are available.
• Microsoft Office and Windows-based systems are used.
• The college provides accessibility support through screen magnification software. 

This supports digital learning, academic research and access to online resources.

Hostel Facilities

TMMCH provides separate accommodation facilities for male and female medical students.

Boys' Hostel

The current college hostel page describes a purpose-built facility with:

• Capacity of 350 students
• Furnished rooms
• Study tables
• Beds
• Wardrobes
• Air conditioning
• Wi-Fi/LAN connectivity
• 24×7 CCTV security
• Common study room
• RO drinking water
• Backup power

Girls' Hostel

The Lima Girls Hostel is described as a residential facility for approximately 400 female medical students.

Facilities include:

The DGME institutional record separately lists 300 male-hostel places and 350 female-hostel places, so for a website it is better to describe the current college-published hostel facilities without presenting a single capacity figure as universally definitive.

Foreign Students at Tairunnessa Memorial Medical College

TMMCH has a dedicated Foreign Students Admission section on its official website.

The college's current homepage and admission section also provide a specific contact number for foreign-student admissions.
