Bhola Thapa’s next challenge after KU success is fixing Tribhuvan University

Professor Bhola Thapa, PhD, has been appointed Vice Chancellor of Tribhuvan University , the largest university of Nepal. Thapa, who previously served as Vice Chancellor of Kathmandu University, has now taken on the responsibility of reforming TU. Active in engineering education, hydropower technology, and energy research, he has been entrusted with improving the university.

After completing his bachelor’s degree in engineering, Thapa began working in a government job. But one day he came across a notice inviting applications for an assistant professor position at Kathmandu University (KU). He applied, and his name was selected.
