Research & Development
To prepare the next generation of competent engineers with a broader outlook, NCE has established a free-standing Research and Development (R&D) Unit that intertwines research and teaching to create a dynamic and synergistic learning environment. The main motives that guide the functioning of the R&D unit are:
1) promoting the research interests of the NCE student and faculty members and
2) acting as an interface to foster collaborations between the NCE and other domestic as well as foreign research centers and universities.
Furthermore, the R&D unit strives to broaden the scope of NCE’s involvement beyond the campus by assisting researchers from other educational institutions in Nepal to implement their research plans. Regarding this objective, NCE’s strategy involves granting research funding to competent and deserving research groups, organizing cost-free/affordable training and workshops, and extending access to its research facilities even to external parties.
