Barun Multiple Campus (BMC) was established in the community efforts in Khandbari Municipality, the headquarter of Sankhuwasava District, in 1986 with the affiliation of Tribhuvan University. The name "Barun" has been derived from the holy river "Barun" which is originated from Mt. Makalu (8,463m) and flows to the South. The existing location of the campus is itself in a uniquely educational-fit place with an isolated little beautiful mound outside the main bazaar overseeing Mt. Makalu range, Arun Valley and a number of river basins and a forest bordering with the campus' premise preserved by Community Forest Users' Group.

Now BMC has been running +2, Bachelor and Master's Levels in Humanities and Social Sciences, Management and Education programs. It is the public campus established with the aim of providing accessible, affordable and quality education to people in the remote Sankhuwasava and northeast Bhojpur and other districts of Eastern Nepal. It is a non-profit public institution. It produces more than 100 graduates every year to fill positions in government offices, businesses and schools. The campus reflects diversity in its students' population by encouraging female and students from all caste to attend.
