Overview of International Medical College (IMC) Gazipur

International Medical College (IMC) was established in the year 2000 after completing all formal procedures and after obtaining permission from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. It started with 20 students in the academic session 1999-2000. Since then the number of students progressively has been increasing every year.

The International Medical College & Hospital is located on the outskirts of the commercial township of Tongi and is about 22 km away from the city center of Dhaka. The major bus stands/terminals, railway station, and Shahjalal International Airport are within a maximum distance of 30 minutes.

The campus stands in a solitary environment amidst green vegetation, spaced villages and large water bodies. One takes a walk around the campus to take a fresh breath while enjoying the panorama and picturesque that the site offers. Everything combines and converges here to make it a perfect place for learning.

The present campus of the College has an area of about 9 acres of land. The college and all preclinical and para-clinical departments are located in the academic building. The Classrooms, Dissection hall, Laboratories, Museum, Library, and other facilities are appropriately arranged on various floors of the Academic Building.

International Medical College Hospital (IMCH) is the academic hospital of the College. It is a 650 bedded multidisciplinary Hospital Complex that is located in proximity to the College building.

Hostel

IMC always gives preference to students’ affairs on priority basis. Since we believe that a tranquil, soothing lodging is an inevitable necessity, especially for medical students, we have arranged well-furnished accommodations for male and female students in two separate hostels. Three-storied Boys' Hostel is located on the bank of the lake inside the campus. The newly built three-storied Girls' Hostel is situated beside the College building. There are separate blocks for foreign male and female students. Both the hostels are adequately furnished with articles needed for everyday living and entertainment. Well trained cooks for both local and foreign students are provided by the College for both the hostels.

Transport Facilities

Students not residing in the hostels are provided with pick-up and drop-off facilities from certain points in the city. A special transport facility is provided twice a month to the students residing in the hostels to go to the city for shopping or other related activities.

Beautification of the Campus

The sprawling College campus is situated at a place having scenic beauty. Recently a lake has been excavated within the campus which has added greater beauty to the picturesque view of the campus. Further beautification of the campus is going on and a massive landscaping program has been undertaken by following the architectural design prepared by renowned architects of the country.
