Padma Kanya Multiple Campus in Nepal has provided scholarships to six Hotel Management students participating in internships in the Middle East. The scholarship will cover airfare and visa expenses, providing a unique opportunity for students to gain experience abroad.
The Hotel Management program at Padma Kanya Campus has been running since 2076. This year, six students from the sixth and seventh semesters of the program were selected to participate in internships abroad.

Assistant Dean Prof. Dr. Shree Krishna Kharel, Campus Head Dr. Jayalakshmi Pradhan, and Director of Nepal Tourism Board, Laxman Gautam, were present at the event and bid farewell to the students.

During the event, the Assistant Dean shared his experience of starting the Hotel Management program at Padma Kanya Campus and the challenges he faced in recruiting students.
Director of the Board, Lakshman Gautam, praised the campus for providing scholarships to students, and the Campus Head, Jayalakshmi Pradhan, explained that although the university’s regulations require a fee of Rs.6,00,000 to be charged at the religious campus, the campus invested in the form of scholarships to support the students.
The Assistant Campus Head, Raju Malla, and Director of the Hotel Management Department, Dr. Umesh Regmi, encouraged the students to contribute to the tourism and hotel industry, and the scholarship recipient, Rija Shrestha, expressed her gratitude towards the campus for covering the expenses related to their internship.
