Establishment of the Pat Hall Endowment Fund

Kathmandu University Executive Committee has recently approved the establishment of the Pat Hall Endowment Fund which will support the studies of two MS by Research students at the Department of Computer Science & Engineering. The fund has been established to mark the tribute to late Prof. Pat Hall who was a Visiting Professor to the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Kathmandu University during the period 2007-2015. Prof. Hall passed away recently in July 2018.  The endowment fund's current target is to raise 8 million Nepali rupees out of which Kathmandu University has already allocated 2.2 million rupees from the School of Engineering Research Fund and other Projects run by different faculties at the Department of Computer Science & Engineering. In order to raise the remaining amount, we have approached donors, friends and families and the initiative has received warm and positive responses. We aim to complete the initial target of the fund raising drive by July 2019.
