About Kathmandu University

Kathmandu University is an autonomous, not-for-profit, self-funding public institution in Nepal, established by an Act of Parliament in December 1991. It describes its mission as "to provide quality education for leadership" and its vision as becoming a world-class university devoted to bringing knowledge and technology to the service of mankind.

The homepage lists academic units including schools of Arts, Education, Engineering, Law, Management, Medical Sciences, and Science, along with a High School (KUHS), a Technical Training Center, and research centres such as the Himalaya Centre for Asian Studies. Student-facing online services listed include course registration, transcripts and grades, the library catalogue (OPAC), a digital repository, and eLearning. The homepage does not state fee amounts, so pricing is unknown from this source.
