Message From Research Director

A Research Management Cell (RMC) was established within the college to foster the advancement of research and professional development as a research unit. The primary mission of this cell encompasses the following objectives:

• • To undertake independent research initiatives or collaborate with other departments and partner organizations.

• • To provide guidance and recommend advisors for projects and theses of BE and M.Sc. students; to extend support for research endeavors.

• • To engage in collaborative efforts with various industries, including government agencies, private enterprises, and nonprofit non-governmental organizations.

• • To acknowledge outstanding performance by students and fellow teaching staff through awards.

Moreover, under the complete purview of the research management cell, U-TEC has successfully published the inaugural issue of the Journal of UTEC Engineering Management, which features ten scientific papers. Under the full responsibility of RMC, U-TEC conducted an international conference, first e-confrence, a technical one in Chitwan. Additionally, faculty members and M.Sc. students have contributed to various high-impact international and national-level journals, with substantial support provided for numerous projects and theses.
