  • Education Management Information System
    EDUCATION MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM REPORT ON HIGHER EDUCATION 2018/19 AD (2075/76 B.S.) NEPAL UNIVERSITY GRANTS COMMISSION FOREWORD igher education is the key to the overall development of a country such as Nepal whose population is passing through a demographic transition. Currently, a total of 11 Huniversities, four health academies and 1432 higher education institutions associated (constituent or affiliated) with them are providing mainstream higher education in the country. However, on the one hand, providing access of higher education to the increased number of eligible population still remains a challenge, while on the other hand the quality of higher education and its relevance to market and national priority has been a concern. In the meantime, planners, policy makers and researchers need timely and relevant data in order to meet the challenge faced in their respective sectors. One of the important tasks of University Grants Commission (UGC), Nepal is the development of Higher Education Information System (HEMIS) and publication of its annual EMIS report. This publication is twelfth in its series of HEMIS report published by UGC. The data and information presented in this report provide several information like: number of students studying in each province, faculty, level of education; distribution of campuses of universities in each province; programs of faculties taught in each province; trend of student enrollment in each faculty and many more. All these information are of utmost importance for improving access and enhancing the quality of higher education by supporting stakeholders in making informed decisions and criteria based allocation of resources. A comprehensive and coordinated HEMIS is of utmost importance for the country and UGC is making its effort towards this.

  • Management Education in Nepal: a View from the High Country
    Nepalese Management Education: A View from the High Country Al Rosenbloom, PhD. Dominican University River Forest, IL Bijay K.C. Kathmandu University Kathmandu, Nepal Paper prepared for and presented at the Business Education and Emerging Market Economies: Trends and Prospects Conference, Atlanta, Georgia, USA November 7, 2003 1 Nepal is a small, landlocked country that straddles the Himalaya mountain range in south Asia. To its north, Nepal shares a common border with China and to its south, it shares a common border with India. India and China dwarf Nepal in both scale and scope. As a result, Nepal is often overlooked when talking about Asia, in general, and south Asia, more specifically. Numerous examples exist of Nepal’s “invisibility” in the academic and professional business/management literature. One current illustration will suffice. In the World Economic Forum’s most recent Global Competitiveness Report (Porter, Schwab, Cornelius, 2003), Nepal is omitted in the large appendix of country profiles. It’s as if Nepal does not exist. A review of the global management literature reveals a similar pattern. Few if any books or articles explore the special management issues and challenges relative to Nepal. This paper begins to fill-in that gap. This paper is specifically about management education in Nepal – how it developed and how various Nepali institutions of higher learning have responded to the evolving needs of Nepali businesses for expertly educated managers. The paper weaves together two ideas throughout: that market needs should be the essential driver for management program development and that those management programs which are entrepreneurial and innovative have the best chance of surviving and thriving long term.

  • Nikku-EH Final SK
    INTERNATIONAL HIGHER EDUCATION, Number 70 Winter, 2013 Pages 16-18 Nepal’s Higher Education: Public vs. Private? BALA RAJU NIKKU Bala Raju Nikku is a founding director of the Nepal School of Social Work and, currently, visiting lecturer at the School of Social Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia. E-mail: [email protected]. As one of the poorest countries in the world, Nepal (with 30 million people) is going through a series of transitions and is rewriting its constitution. Access to education and now to higher education is limited in Nepal. The rapidly changing political climate in Nepal may lead to further development of higher education in the recently declared republic, which replaced the centuries-old monarchy. The record of higher education development in Nepal is short but has been growing since the establishment of democracy only in the 1950s. The Tribhuvan University established in 1959 was the oldest and the only university (until 1992), initiated with the help of India and the United States. Prior to the establishment of the Tribhuvan University, some classes were conducted in Kathmandu, the capital city, under the prescribed courses of Patna University (state of Bihar, India). It conducted its own examinations and conferred degrees to successful students. By 1965, in Nepal there were 5 colleges with total enrollment of 5,000 and 51 community colleges with a total enrollment of 10,000. 1 DEVELOPMENT OF NEW UNIVERSITIES Only in 1992, the Kathmandu University was established under an act of parliament using public, private partnership modalities. The establishment of that university paved the way for expansion of private-sector involvement in higher education in the country.
