TU Must Focus On Research Excellence

The first and largest university in the country often faces challenges in meeting the benchmarks set by the top universities globally. It is frequently heard from policymakers, politicians, and academicians that Tribhuvan University (TU) should replicate the “Harvard Style.” Many of them claim that TU’s curriculum is on a par with that of Harvard. However, it is unrealistic to compare TU with Ivy League schools or other top-ranked universities worldwide due to significant differences in the quality of resources, faculty expertise, infrastructure, and other factors.
