Typical semesters include C/C++, Data Structures, Web Tech, DBMS, OS, Java, Networks, Software Engineering, Digital Pedagogy, AI in Education, Linux Administration, Python, GIS/Big Data, and Cloud/Multimedia.
The program aims to prepare ICT teachers for schools and education sectors, develop professionals who can build practical applications, and support progression to postgraduate study.
Graduates can teach computer science/ICT at school level and contribute to ICT support, labs, and academic technology roles in education.
Students gain programming proficiency, data handling, networks, OS, security, web and database skills, plus classroom pedagogy for ICT.
Key skill areas include Java, Visual Programming, Computer Graphics, Networks and Security, Linux administration, Python, and electives such as GIS, Big Data, and Cloud.
FoE prescribes lectures, group discussion, demonstrations, seminars, problem solving, field work, and technology-integrated pedagogy. Each semester runs about five months.
Applicants must pass Grade 12 or equivalent from a TU-recognized board with minimum C in each subject and CGPA ≥2.00 (or second division).
All eligible candidates sit the CEAT: 100 MCQs—ICT 40%, Math 25%, English 15%, Educational GK 20%—with 40% minimum to qualify for interview.
Possible roles include ICT teacher/instructor, school IT support, lab coordinator, and entry-level developer or database/network assistant within education settings.
Dhaulagiri Multiple Campus, established in 1962 (Baglung Bazar) and supported by UGC, offers low-fee community education, extra classes, exam-oriented support, and library lending (typical bachelor lending quota and fixed loan period).
Campus-level scholarships may apply for deserving and under-represented students. (Campus resource provided by the institution.)
You plan to teach and also want hands-on ICT. This pathway gives both—pedagogy plus strong computing coursework—and a structured teaching practicum in the final semester.
Unsure about the entrance process or course load? Check CEAT format, semester structure, and attendance/grading rules in advance, then plan study time around internal assessments and the practicum.
