Message
from Dean
Welcome to the School of Education!
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to
the Kathmandu University School of Education (KUSOED). Since
its establishment, KUSOED has been providing quality education
through its Postgraduate Diploma (PGDE), Masters in Education
(MEd), MPhil and PhD programs. We have been focusing on producing
capable human capital in the areas of Educational Leadership,
Development Studies, Research, Teacher Education and Training.
We are very careful to provide access to quality education
for our students. The
tasks before us are large, but they must be faced and we
are best off facing them together. Working together, we can ensure
that the challenges of quality education are addressed. The School
of Education is one of KU's leading educational institutions which
has the capacity to build confidence in tomorrow's human resources,
the students admitted in this school, and to lead the educational
system of the country toward the desired direction.
We are aware that in the 21st century teachers and teacher educators
need to be broadly educated with regard to changes taking place
around the globe. We accord developing skills, attitudes and knowledge
relevant to the world of work as high priority. The School of Education
continues to attract and retain outstanding faculty who are well
respected in their fields. We offer a challenging intellectual environment
for our undergraduate and graduate degree programs in different
fields of study. We believe in having interactions, practicing,
discussing, participating in project works, seminars and research
as the main vehicles for quality education.
I would like to thank you for your continued interest to KUSOED
and its programs.
