PU committed to quality education
By a Post Reporter
KATHMANDU, Aug 10 - Purbanchal University (PU) is committed to quality
education and is providing affiliation to some selected colleges only, said its Registrar
here yesterday.
Speaking at a programme organised by Acme Technical Institute, an engineering
college affiliated to PU, Dr KP Sharma, the Registrar of the University said, " We,
as a University aren't limited just to the eastern region (as the name suggests) and are
selective before giving affiliation."
Sharma said they want to promote healthy competition and break monopoly in
the education sector by giving affiliation to standard institutes only.
"If the affiliates violate the rules and regulations of the University,
their affiliation will be cancelled then and there," Sharma added. "We are
concentrating in the Capital city at the moment since it is possible to provide quality
education here."
Political leaders should understand that education sector can really excel in
Nepal if developed as an industry, he added.
Until now, PU has given affiliation to 33 colleges in the field of
management, commerce and education, totalling 19, where either single or multiple
courses are offered, such as Computer Application (5), Education (5), Bio-chemistry (1),
Law (1) Sociology (1) and Agriculture (1).
