Students want TU to offer new programmes

A good number of applicants are changing their faculties due to the unavailability of desired courses in Tribhuvan University-affiliated colleges. “Though I wanted to study Fashion Designing at first, I have switched to Journalism since that course is not available in TU,” said Sadiksha Pathak, a graduate from St Xavier’s College. Sobit Baniya, a Masters degree graduate from the Central Department of Fine Arts at TU, said he opted for fine arts as no TU-affiliated college offered Interior Design courses.

Chhama Keyal, a graduate from Namuna College of Fashion Designing, said she studied Fashion Designing from a Purvanchal University-affiliated college as the course was not available in TU. There are many such students, who wish to study at TU, but end up in other colleges, and even go abroad to study the courses of their choice. Many Nepali students want to join TU so that they can study with renowned professors and increase their job prospects.

“I had never thought that the country’s oldest and the largest university would have so few choices,” said Rashmi from Birgunj, seeking admission in craft courses. Parents are also disappointed at the unavailability of new courses in the country’s largest university.

A parent, whose daughter wants to study crafts said, “ TU is not for creative people.” “TU has fine arts, music, dancing, and many such courses to enhance the creativing of students. If students think we need to add more courses, we are ready,” said Professor Chinta Mani Pokhrel, Dean at TU’s Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
