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.
