Message from Mr. Bishnu Raj Adhikari
Principal
For more than two decades, 1996 onward, Kathmandu College of Management (KCM) has maintained its niche as the leading institution for value-based management education that not only focused on strengthening professionalism among students but also stressed on reinforcing human and ethical qualities.
At KCM, the focus has always been on preparing students through constant engagement and involvement In every activity, be they academic or co-curricular, so that the learning process happens in an environment of student participation. This has Indeed, given KCM a distinctive quality.
Even as the KCM team continued with this pedagogical approach, a turning point occurred In 2014 when KCM entered into a partnership with SIAM University of Thailand offering the Bachelor in Business Administration programs — BBA in Finance and Banking and BBA In Marketing. Since then, over the years. KCM has grown from strength to strength with its strong dedicated faculty and outstanding students, who take up the challenges thrown up by the rigour of learning with unmatched zeal knowing full well that they are being prepared and equipped with the skills needed for next-generation entrepreneurs and business leaders in the global corporate setting.
In this backdrop, it Is with a sense of great joy that I welcome you to the KCM family. In the course of the four-year program, this crucial phase of your life, you will experience the fun of exploring your potentials and areas of interest; the joy of evolving as you find your mental abilities grow and you mature emotionally, and last but not the least you finally become ready to not only take on the daunting tasks that all your endeavors entail but also to excel in whatever you do.
The joy I feel in welcoming you is heightened further because the KCM-SIAM partnership has borne its first fruits with our first batch of BBA graduates in Banking and Finance, and BBA In Marketing set to enter the world of real-life business and make their mark.
I believe they have lived the KCM creed and will continue to explore, evolve and excel in all their undertakings.
