Tribhuvan University (TU) designed the Conflict, Peace and Development Studies (CPDS) as a multidisciplinary Masters program that draws on key insights and strengths from several disciplines in social sciences, humanities, environmental sciences and philosophy to provide a comprehensive understanding of the multi-faceted phenomena. CPDS further augments its comparative approach and international knowledge sharing through a regular exchange of students and faculty between its partner institutions, namely: Norwegian University of Life Sciences (UMB), Aas in Norway; University of Ruhuna, Matara in Sri Lanka and COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Abbottabad in Pakistan.
CPDS began its classes with the first batch of 38 students in September 2007 at its current location at Global College, Mid-Baneshwor, Kathmandu. Besides the regular teaching, the program has held several workshop and exercises by bringing together academics, experts and students.
CPDS welcomes applicants who have completed their Bachelor degree in good standing and candidates are selected through a competitive screening process. The current student body consists of fresh undergraduates, security sector officers, teachers, development practitioners, and seven students from Sri Lanka. The admission notices are disseminated through newspaper advertisements and institutional communication. CPDS is an equal opportunity institution and encourages women and candidates from remote areas and marginalized communities to apply.
Each year the program can enroll a maximum of fifty students. Because of its international student and faculty composition, English is the language of instruction and written work. The students are graded on a regular cycle of written work, exams, research papers, and class participation throughout the semester. During the final semester, the students are required to produce a research thesis to receive their degree. Eighty percent class attendance is compulsory.
