History and Development

Before 2037 BS, there was no institution of higher education in the Kailali district. The absence of educational opportunities after the School [Leaving Certificate |School Leaving Certificate ] examination created an urgent social demand for a local campus. As a result, the local community initiated the establishment of Kailali Multiple Campus in 2037 BS.
Prior to the campus's foundation, most students from the region had to travel to Kathmandu or India for higher studies. Since its establishment, KMC has grown to become one of the largest community-based campuses in Nepal, with more than 9,000 students.
The campus is situated in the eastern part of Dhangadhi Sub-Metropolitan City. KMC operates as an autonomous, community-based, and non-profit institution, with the aim of providing higher education to educationally underserved areas.
Affiliated with Tribhuvan University until 2021, KMC became a constituent campus of Far-western University following a government decision. Over the past decades, the campus has produced thousands of graduates working in various sectors both within Nepal and internationally.
In 2015, the University Grants Commission of Nepal awarded KMC the Quality Assurance and Accreditation certificate in recognition of its academic standards. The same year, KMC was ranked number one by the UGC among 60 community campuses selected under the Higher Education Reform Project, supported by the World Bank.
