VENUE OF THE WORKSHOP CUM TRAINING

The Manipal College of Medical Sciences (MCOMS), Pokhara was established in 1994 following a historic agreement between His Majesty’s Government and the Manipal Education and Medical Group (MEMG) for setting up of professional colleges and hospitals in Nepal. The 825 bed Manipal Teaching Hospital was inaugurated in 1998. The college started post-graduate programmes and the School of Nursing and Allied Health programme in the year 2000. From August 2003 onwards, the annual intake of medical students for the MBBS programmes was increased to 150. The students are admitted in August every year.

HOW TO REACH POKHARA

a) by Air

The only international airport in Nepal is Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International. There are flights to Kathmandu from around the globe. Within Nepal, most areas are connected by air, even though some by small aircrafts on little runways.

There are many low fare flights available between Kathmandu to Pokhara

A popular way of entering Nepal is at the border with India. There are entry points at Kakkarbhitta (West Bengal), Biratnagar (Bihar), Birgunj (Bihar), Sunauli, Nepalgunj, Dhanagadi and Mahendranagar (all across the border from Uttar Pradesh). The towns are listed here as they lie from east to west. Biratnagar is Nepal’s second largest city, after Kathmandu. Buses enter at these points and of course you could drive in as well.
