Message Kathmandu Model College (KMC), which was launched in 2000 AD with a vision and a mission, has continued to make progress during the last fourteen years. Its achievements are reflected in various ongoing academic programs. It is our firm conviction that KMC will go ahead with determination to achieve its mission of imparting quality education to all the new and aspiring students. There are opportunities and challenges to which KMC will respond positively as our college securely built upon the school system and a new venture into technical education is, indeed, an institution of higher learning with a difference. Convinced that quality education is equally important at the school and technical level, KMC not only established seven years ago its junior wings supported by professionally competent teachers but also introduced Bachelor level (BE) programs in Computer, Electronics, Civil Engineering and Architecture. KMC, which has been running Master level (MA) classes in English affiliated to Tribhuvan University (TU) since 2005 AD, started in 2010 MBS (Master's Degree in Business Studies) classes and is planning to launch new programs affiliated to TU such as MSW (Master's Degree in Social Work). A

from the Principal research institute called Kathmandu Model Research Foundation (KMRF) established by the college in 2008 AD continues to encourage value-based research culture among students and teachers. It is a matter of pride and satisfaction that KMC continues to be a top ranking college in the private sector with excellent scores in classes XI and XII, BBA, BBS, and BA affiliated to HSEB/ TU. The BBA program of KMC under the Faculty of Management has become very popular among the aspiring students who know that there is tremendous scope for employment opportunities and higher studies in Management on completion of this course. Although the college can admit the fixed number of students to this program, the number of students seeking admission is simply overwhelming. Internship in reputed banks of the country which is compulsory for BBA students has made the program both theory and practice based, making it all the more attractive and rewarding. TU result in MA English was 100% in 2009/2010 and

was excellent in 2011/2012. It is gratifying to note that one of the students of this college became a TU topper in 2011 with aggregate 75% marks in MA English. KMC is equally proud to have received HSEB Excellence Award in 2008 for having secured second position among the 2000 higher secondary schools in the country. KMC's outstanding performance in diverse streams has been made possible by its qualified and competent teachers, devoted and disciplined students and the cooperative administrative staff and management team. KMC continues to focus on dedication, devotion, diligence and discipline for its steady progress and impressive performance. It is because of the emphasis of the college on quality education that the students who have graduated from KMC in various disciplines at different levels have not only been selected and awarded scholarships for higher studies in technical fields like medicine, engineering and social sciences as well as management disciplines including CA

(Chartered Accountancy) but also have been appointed to important posts and positions in public service and private companies. KMC welcomes SLC graduates to become its new members and benefit from the programs designed to help them build and promote their careers in their respective disciplines. The college, which has wellequipped labs and well-stocked library with journals, study reports and audio visual aid, has tried hard to make all programs attractive and quality-based. Workshops and seminars are organized on a regular basis to help students learn and grasp the prescribed courses of their studies for which well-known scholars are invited from other academic institutions. KMC spares no pains in making all its students feel at home and making their association with the college as fruitful and rewarding as possible.

Master's Program MA (English)

MBS

The importance of English language and literature in the modern world need not be over emphasized. English today enjoys the status of international communication. It is the major international language of science, management and international politics. The whole world is linked today by computers through the language of English. Therefore, English as a field of study has been the focal point of higher education in Nepal.

The need for quality education and managerial skills in the government, business and development sectors has been emphasized, in recent years, to cope with the ever-increasing demands of the country as well as the rapidly changing needs of education. KMC has been carrying out +2 level and undergraduate courses in Management for the last twelve and ten years respectively. The main objective of running MBS courses is to impart internationally recognized quality education in Management with special focus on enhancing management capability at the higher level, producing professional managers and entrepreneurs for business and development organizations, training and retraining existing managers and, finally, preparing fully well-trained students who want to pursue higher studies in Management at home and abroad. MBS program is based on the curriculum designed by TU, and students are required to study this course for 2 years with opportunity to specialize in various management related courses.

KMC, with its team of qualified teachers, has been conducting MA classes in English in the morning shi since January 2005. With the growing demand for the study of English at the Master level, it was observed in 2005 that the Central Department of English of Tribhuvan University was facing tremendous student pressure. The number of students opting for MA in English was so high that the Department was choked with crowded classrooms coupled with disparity in the teacher-student ratio. Our first batch's (2005 -2007) sterling success with cent percent pass and 45% of first division scores speaks highly of the quality of our MA program. The first year result of the second batch (2006- 2008), surpassed the achievement of the first batch with 75 percent first division scores. Likewise, the first year result of the third batch (20072009) with 100 percent first division scores is a matter of pride and satisfaction to the KMC family. It is gratifying to note that one of the students of this college became a TU Topper with aggregate 75% marks in MA English in 2011. Academic performance of the subsequent batches has been equally satisfactory. KMC is happy to inform that all the first batch graduates have got jobs.

Reference section of the library is equally strong with the availability of widely referred books in the field of management. The availability of selected journals, study reports, audio video CDs and other reference materials has added value in our library and documentation centre. SPORTS KMC arranges various games including Table Tennis, Badminton, Basketball, Chess, Football, and Cricket to refresh the teaching-learning activities. TRANSPORTATION KMC has it's own buses to facilitate transportation for it's students. The college provides transportation facility from different locations inside the valley.

Learning Process At KMC, we adopt a participatory method of teaching and learning which demands rigorous participation from both the students and teachers. A careful blend of the traditional classroom learning with more contemporary tools and techniques of learning is key to increase overall learning efficiency. KMC has a team of dedicated faculty members with diverse academic research backgrounds to deliberate upon and deal with academic issues. They simplify and generalize the complex matter with the help of proven teaching approaches. The Major methods of learning process used are the following: Group Discussion According to the subject demand, group discussions among students are organized frequently so that diverse ideas are shared. This makes the whole process of learning fun, stimulating and meaningful. Class Participation Inquisitiveness is highly appreciated at KMC While students are encouraged to put forward their queries and doubts without hesitation, they are likely to face surprise tests and quizzes to test their awareness and focus.

Guest Lectures Leading personalities and authorities and experts from various fields are regularly invited to speak to students on a variety of subjects and share from their storehouse of experience and knowledge, These activities inspire students towards professionalism and the urge to take initiatives in life. Audio-Video Aids Each classroom has multimedia access. Audio visual and other teaching aids are used where required to ensure effective learning. Project and Presentation Students are assigned projects relevant to the course requirement. Project works are always highly demanding as students need to demonstrate their ability to experiment, manage time and practice presentation skills. Field Trips and Excursions As we all know, students need to experience the application of their knowledge in the real world and also get some time off from the monotony of classroom learning. Therefore, we at KMC frequently organize field trips to enhance practical learning.
