·         Purbanchal University, Biratnagar

·         Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu

Universities in Nepal offer Diploma, Masters, M.Phil & Ph.D. programs on various disciplines. Most of the universities follow semester systems for their assessment process. Even though, the largest university-Tribhuvan University runs many programs on annual examination basis.

There is slight variation in total number of years that students need to complete according to the nature of the program. This can be presented in following table:

SN	Level/Program	Academic Years for completion	Remarks
1	Bachelor Level	4-5 years
2	Masters Level	2-3 years
3	M.Phil.	2 years
4	Ph.D.	3+ years

To enter the university level education, one must complete the higher secondary level or PCL (12 years of schooling). The students are enrolled in the university only after an entrance examination. In some faculties, students have to face a high competition to get an admission. Institute of Medicine and Department of Engineering are few of them.

There are two types of universities in Nepal: Government-funded universities and privately run universities. The government-funded universities provide education in lesser fee than the privately run universities. Pokhara University and Kathmandu University are privately run universities and they are more expensive than other universities.

Even though, the history of higher education is not very long in Nepal, there is considerable progress in higher education. Universities in Nepal are proving to be very key institutions that are providing quality manpower to develop our country in all the sectors of life.
