In Nepal, endemic rural poverty,
food insecurity and poor quality of rural life exist as outstanding development
challenges. Inseparable relationship between agriculture and rural development
demands that agriculture must be looked from a stand point of holistic rural
development. Strong inter-linkages exist among technology, infrastructure and
services, producing positive impacts to rural economy and quality of rural
life. This has created demand for cadre of technical manpower who could apply
the knowledge of engineering and technology in rural development. nec has
started Bachelor program in Civil and Rural Engineering from 2008 which is an
unique initiative in the country and in the region. The graduates in Civil and
Rural Engineering are expected to serve in numerous government and development
agencies working in the areas of rural infrastructure development, natural
resources management, agro-industries and rural credit institutions, apart from
conventional Civil Engineering projects.
