History of Public Administration course in Nepal

public administration education was started with a one-year diploma in public administration together with imparting in-service training for HMG Second Class Gazetted Officers under Center for Economic Development and Administration (CEDA) of the Tribhuvan University.

Later in 1976, Public Administration Campus (PAC) – a full fledge constituent campus of the Tribhuvan University was established. PAC was assumed the sole responsibility for education for public administration and undertook “Diploma in Public Administration” (DPA Program until 1979).

The mission quickly evolved to include offering Master degree in Public Administration in 1979. To upgrade and get more independent status, Tribhuvan University has created the Central Department of Public Administration (CDPA) in 1986. Since then PAC/CDPA has been imparting education, training and conducting research in the area of public affairs management.
