History
BMC was established in August 2006 by former Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Akram Khan Durrani and opened that December. In 2009, a new campus in Bannu Township was approved and formal work started in 2013. Though the 600 kanal campus was intended to be completed by 2016, there were delays due to shortage of funds, with the construction estimated to cost Rs627 million. The temporary location for the college was in Bannu City in the Government High School No. 3 building. Because the Bannu City campus did not have residence halls, students had to find their own accommodation. Construction finished and the permanent campus in Bannu Township was opened in March 2021.Programs
