The
Kathmandu University (KU) was established in 1991 as an autonomous,
not-for-profit, non-government public institution of higher learning.
It offers academic and short-term programs through six schools: School
of Management, School of Engineering, School of Education, School
of Arts and School of Science.
An
eighteen-month M.Sc. program in Environmental Science was initiated
in response to the growing societal need for professional scientist
capable of dealing with environmental issues in a variety of institutional,
industrial and community contexts. KU is currently collaborating with
a number of universities and other national and international organizations.
The university also offers elective courses on GIS applications. The
university is keenly considering offering courses on disaster mitigation.
