The concept of e-health was established to help the underprivileged citizens who live in the rural part of the country. Bangladesh is an over-populated country where more than 70% population live in rural areas, but unfortunately due to lack of knowledge and awareness among the citizen the telemedicine concept is becoming popular only for citizens of urban areas. This sort of unexpected outcome of e-health system has limited the efficiency of the whole concept. In our research, we have selected a group of students who are studying in undergraduate program of science field and analyzed their knowledge on telemedicine through questionnaire. Later on, we also suggested few possible outcomes based on our research findings. During the analysis, SPSS version 20 was used along with Likert Scale technique and Spearman's Co Relation were used to comment on the findings.
