Message From The College Dean

Dear all University communities and fellows; Bule Hora University, College of health and Medical Science was newly founded young Faculty, in 2017. Since then; it had a duty to address the National issue of education, research and community service. The College was designed to produce compassionate, respective and skillful health professional and enabling them to solve any health and health related problem that may affects individual’s life. This may help to address National health policy and millennium development goals (MDG).

It was obvious that Ethiopia has witnessed considerable expansion in health care services in the last decade with massive scale up of health infrastructure, health workforce development, increasing responsiveness of health professionals to the client needs and improved access to medical equipment and essential supplies among others. Following this there are significant improvements in many health indicators. However the human resources development and management challenges still exist despite significant strides made in the last few years. Health work force density (health professionals to population ratio) was very low compared to other sub-Saharan Africa. In order to address the challenges our College will plan to launch different departments and programs and aimed produce large number of health professional to improve health work force density.

The major objective of our College was becoming the center of excellence in producing nationally recognized skillful Health professionals. The College was affiliated with different Health professionals to address the National issue of education, research and community service. In addition to this, we assign Medical doctors and Nurses at University Clinic and Bule Hora General Hospital to provide health care services.

At the near future we plan to switch Bule Hora General Hospital under our University to expand Health care service and affiliated the hospital with different specialist and occupied with advanced Medical equipments. This may solve many challenges of the community to seek advanced health services in other areas.

Finally I would like to express my deepest appreciation to all stake holders that helps in launching and shaping the College to address its objective in all way round.
