Curricular Structure
The course will have the following components:
The theory will deal with the fundamentals required in basic science, technology, and engineering subjects relevant to existing as well as prospective industries in Nepal. Subjects like Management, Hydropower, Renewable Energy, Bio-medical technology, Automobile Technology, Refrigeration and Air conditioning, Maintenance Engineering, Production Technologies, etc which have the future scope in Nepal as well as in international markets will be dealt with in this course.
Practical subjects will develop the skills of the students in the engineering application. The theoretical knowledge will be applied in the practical training courses.
Project work will provide the students an opportunity to be intuitive, creative and develop skills to solve specific problems. A project report will be written by each student individually or jointly based on the project that has been completed and will be submitted to the department. One additional project will be on “Entrepreneurship Development” aspects. In this project, each student has to develop a business plan incorporating legal, planning, project design, financial, technical, marketing aspects as well as managerial aspects.
On the Job Training (OJT) / Industrial Attachment will be for 15 weeks and students are sent to a particular industry based on their interest and availability. It will be a part of the course. Based on availability, students could also be sent to foreign companies to have on the job training.
For Seminar Paper, each student has to select a related topic and present a research paper based on secondary information and it will be a part of the course.
