Study Procedure for MPhil / PhD Programs

  • Entry Requirement 

The candidate who is willing to study at Kathmandu University should meet all requirements according to the criteria of Kathmandu University.

  •  Written Exam and Interview

After meeting all the requirements, candidates must attend both the written exam and the interview. These are essential components of the selection process at Kathmandu University. The written exam consists of basic questions related to the program in which the applicant wishes to enroll, while the interview—conducted after the exam—helps the committee learn more about the applicant’s academic background, motivation, and suitability for the program.

For PhD applicants, the committee will first review the submitted research proposal and other academic documents. After this review, applicants are required to attend a written exam (if required), deliver a presentation based on their research proposal, and participate in an interview.

  •  Short List

Strong candidates are selected through a process that includes written exams and interviews, while PhD students are shortlisted only after presenting their research proposals.

  •  Fee Structure of MPhil / PhD for international students at Kathmandu University

Students from SAARC countries need to bare 1.5 times more than the normal fee structure and students from other nations should bare double than normal fee structure of KUSOED.
