The pace of industrial development in Nepal is very slow. Industrial sector contributes just about 10% to the GDP of the country. Without industrial development, economic well being of the nation is not attainable. There are several impediments to the industrial development in Nepal. Among the development of human resources is the vital one.
Nepal has recently entered into the World Trade Organization.This will provide new opportunities as well as challenges. Our industries will face a competitive environment. To tackle new scenario, Nepal Needs skilled and qualified people to serve the industrial development sector as either skilled service providers or motivated entrepreneurs.They must be well equipped with technical, managerial and entrepreneurial skills.
Realizing the country’s new challenges as well as opportunities, Institute of Engineering Thapathali Campus, is to starting a four-year Bachelor of engineering course on Industrial Engineering. This course will provide an opportunity to young Nepalese Students to obtain the background knowledge necessary to be a professional in a rapidly changing global economy. These engineers will be able to work in a variety of national and international industries like Hydropower and Renewable and Alternative Energy, Telecommunication, Food and Beverage, Manufacturing, Textiles, Pharmaceuticals, Automobile and Transportation, Bio-medical Engineering, Production Management, Airlines sector, Industrial Management and Consulting Projects, etc.
Thapathali Campus envisages that here will be a faster industrial development process due to motivated trained, educated skilled young Nepalese engineers who are working either as entrepreneurs or service providing professionals.
The objective of the course is to produce engineers interested in and capable of handling the challenges faced by the industrial sectors in technical as well as managerial aspects in Nepal. Graduate engineers will be entrepreneurs, managers, and technical experts and professionals to enhance the pace of industrial development in Nepal.
Course Structure
The course will have following components:
Theory will deal with the fundamentals required in basic science, technology and engineering subjects relevant to existing as well as perspective 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 future scope in Nepal as well as in international markets will be dealt in this course.
Practical subjects will develop the skills of the students in the engineering application. 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 of 15 weeks and students are sent to 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.
