Lord Buddha Education Foundation has opened admission for the Post Graduate level Information Technology Program.
The college has opened admissions for the ‘MSc ITM’ (Masters of Information Technology Management) program which is being run in association with the Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation in Malaysia.
There are very few IT programs in foreign universities for the postgraduate level in Nepal. In this way, we have presented information about the MSc ITM course brought by Lord Buddha, what kind of students can study, and where there are opportunities after studying.
What course is it?
MSc ITM is an IT course designed to combine technology and management. This course focuses on the knowledge of technology, and where and how to use it.
According to Pankaj Jalan, founder and president of Lord Buddha Education Foundation, the main objective of this course are to make students ‘technocrats’. That is, this course provides students with detailed knowledge of the latest technologies and their integrated use and management.
In other courses, only upgraded technology courses are taught at the master’s level. In MSc ITM, it is taught how to integrate upgraded technology into each other and give better results, he said.
According to him, after studying this course, one can work at the senior level of IT, including IT manager, and project manager.

We provide theoretical and practical knowledge of various aspects of computer systems. After this, one learns how to use technology in a company or business. Therefore, every work done at the senior level of IT falls under this,” he said.
